Flowerhorn has white poop (parasites), how to cure it?

[Khoi Ta]

He has it for a couple weeks now, probably from a feeder. I don't know if it's parasites or what the word for it, but the poop is white.

How do I get rid of it for him? Been a couple weeks already, still white poop for him. He's about a 3 inches red dragon

Read RD's pinned topic about treating hexemita

Espom salt pellets. Pretty much what that thread is about.

Use Clear. Have to inject it to the belly through mouth.

I would say either clear or metro. Epsom salt with food only seldomly works for me.

Buy "CZ Clear". Watch some videos on how to safely inject through the fish's mouth into their stomach. I have used this medication several times over the last 8 years with perfect results. If your fish is 3 inches he should be large enough to treat. This disease is fatal if not treated so get to work on beating the infection before its too late.

it's not the white spot on it body or head

it's the white poop, it take even hours for the fish to get rid of it's poop, and it doesnt swim around much and still shy around me and it been a month, so that's probably the cause

I've had Epsom salt treatment clear up white poo and even prolapse anus before when I was addicted to kamfas years ago. Favorite treatment. Safe, cheap, effective

If not eating I would try the 'clear'. Seems to be working for me so far. If eating soak food in Epsom salt solution and feed as per pinned article.

Sorry, it died yesterday. I tried to cure it then end up killing it by accident....
