55 Gallon Tank Blue Gourami Worms or constipation?

Hello,
A couple of days ago I posted about my Blue Gourami having white long stringy poop trailing from it. Yesterday I fed her some peas and today I come home and her poop looks like this. Is it Worms, or was she just several constipated and it's starting to come out? She has been eating she was acting listless up until today, and the poop doesn't stay attached to her as long, but she is constantly pooping.

 

I don't have much experience with worms, but I have much experience with fish poop! It seems like she's clearing her system, especially if her behavior improved since she started passing food. Consistency definitely changes based on the foods they eat and from brand to brand. If it looks like that still in about 2-3 days, I'd say we look at it again. If she's not seeming to feel sick, though, I would leave her alone for now since you solved the consipation issue.

 

Looks like normal poop to me given the fact that she's been given peas.
What you feed / give comes out again.
Fed a lot means poop a.lot.
Is theur algae in its diet ?

Yes, and she is constantly pooping the white stringy poop again, she is also hiding in the cave a lot again.

In that case I'd use a dewormer.

I feed her a combination of Fluval Bug bites, API tropical flakes, very rarely Frozen bloodworms, peas once a week, various blanched veggies once-twice a week, and sinking algae wafers for the corydoras and BN Plecos.

Take care your gouramis get some algae (flakes) / vegs (blanched lettuce for instance) as well. To much protein can cause issues

BTW Corys aren't algae-eaters so take care they get enough protein (the other way around hahaha).

I have some sinking wafers for the corydoras that have a mix of protein aswell. I do give them lettuce at least twice a week when I can. I will look into some algae flakes, she does eat the hair algae off some of the plants aswell.

I'd deworm your fish to be sure.

The medication is on its way.
