I have been feeding api general cure for 20 days now and still see the white stringy poop. I am mixing 1 tablespoon of food with 1 scoop api and 1 scoop focus. Is there something else i can try? Also, I'm worried that 20 days is too long and I may need to stop? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like you are doing the right thing. I know that 3 weeks isn’t too long. Hopefully others will chime in.

Here's another option for you to consider. This one works particularly well on certain types of encysted roundworm parasites:

I had the same thing happen with an anthias. Went through 10 days of gc/metro dosing plus feeding gc/focus laced food for 2 weeks. Still had white stringy poop. Feeding fenbendazole/focus laced food seemed to do the trick for me.
