My common goldfish has white, stringy poop. The poop was about 1 inch long and it has some brown parts but mostly white. I feed Omega One sinking pellets but they have a habit of gasping at the surface (I used to feed them flakes *facepalm*). Anyways last week there was two bubbles in its poop so I was instructed to soak the food before feeding. I've been doing that but now he has mostly white, stringy poop with some brown. Is this a sign of parasites? I'm going to try and offer other foods like bloodworms or a gel food and see if that helps at all. Ammonia and Nitrite is always 0 and I try to keep Nitrate under 20ppm. Should I fast the tank? I was also doing research and some recommended API General Cure in situations like these because it is anti-bacterial and anti-parasitic. The white poop could also be from stress and/or constipation. I have two other goldfish so I'll try and see what their poop looks like if I notice.
