Alrighty folks just your friendly average neighborhood reefer here. So I’ve added a set of mochas to my tank along with my goby and pistol pair. One of my mochas has a long stringy white poop I’ve already been in here deep investigating. Do I need to quarantine my one mocha or can I treat it with prazipro and whatever else y'all recommend.

QTing is a little to late now to stop it from spreading any parasites it may or may not have from spreading in your DT tank but if you are to medicate the fish do it in a separate clean tank. No rocks or substrate since it will absorb the medicine.

Read this for the stringy poop. My memory thought it was constipation but my free 2cents is usually wrong.
