Floating poo indicates gas in the intestines, try varying the diet, also is the poo slimy or whitish?
not to be to descriptive but there is sections of poo held together by like a whitish see through coating. That is the best i can describe it
This is probably an early hexamita or other protozoal infection, treat with metronidazol. The infection is a common one, esp. among cichlids and discus. Metro is the med of choice for it and it is rare that any side effects occur. If you can't find it locally order from somewhere like www.bigalsonline.com or www.rockymountaindiscus.com
