possible problem

[jack frost]

started feeding my ray un cooked shrimp 2 weeks ago. Ive noticed his poop has turned white and is kinda curly. Is this ok or should I be worried about parasites?

Seems like its natural since he is eating only a white colored food. Thanks

has the shrimp that you feed been frozen ? if so then I doubt its a parasite issue

but I would wait for someone a little more knowledgeable to come in and give adivise.

The poop should be curly, that is due to the way their gut works.

I expect it is white due to the colour of what you are feeding them.

Sounds fine to me

Fine, my guys get shrimp, most of the poop is white.

Very Normal!! will also appear white if you feed smelt on a regular basis.

This is normal. Parasite poo is long and stringy. Nothing wrong with curly white.
