Poop like that is not normal it sounds like spironucleus. There is a thread on here about treating it with Epsom salt I'm going through it with good success. Beef heart is not very good for fish, hard for them to break down if you are going to feed it - it should be much less frequently a good pellet will go a long way.

can u please post the link so i can know the ammount of salt ... my GT has also this issue :cry::cry:
 
i am changing quarter of the water ( 180 literstank ) every three days , i have devided the tank between the flower horn and the green terror ... and despite of their disease, still they want to meet and fight !!! any way last time i had changed the water i added 140 gram of epsom salt ... i do not see any major change and still the disgusting white poo coming out of both !
 
am wondering how can they survive without any food for more than a week ... any suggestions?

I am currently treating my breeding flowerhorn pair with metro and have had results after one day. I think Epsom salt slows down the reproduction or growth of the internal parasites but doesn't kill them off completely. Some people get good results with the salt and then symptoms come back later on. Keep trying the salt but if it doesn't work I'd try some metro. And fish can go a long time without food. A weak will be no problem.
 
Yep. Metronidazol. Look for Lupin 's sticky in Diseases.
 
The mirror trick does help the fh kok , it help it get big ,but water changes n a good diet help always
