So I recently purchased 3 guppies from Pet Smart after having no fish in my tank for nearly a week now.
Prior to doing so I let it cycle, bought a new heater, checked ph, so on...
Brought the 3 home and acclimated them for a few hours while I went out for food. Came home, let them out. No issues.
Then I noticed one of the guppies was pooping something white. He was swimming in a corner by himself, and was shaking. I know from what I've read online that shaking and white poop is bad and could mean parasites :/
After he pooped it out though, he swam back to rejoin his friends and the shaking completely stopped. Now all 3 are swimming like they were, completely normal. I been closely looking at him for the past hour.
Should I be worried about him? He is a beautiful banana cream colored guppy and I really don't want to lose him.
EDIT: Noticing he is now swimming by himself, then he rejoins the others. Then he sits in one place by himself, then swims back. He has very odd behavior. The other two are swimming together and are very active, and the Banana one is floating in one spot, not really doing much.
