Parasite?

[Gmullis]

He is eating great and looks healthy. Is this a parasite or normal fish poop?

Thank you! This happened to my other clown but it was skinnier and whiter.

Mucus in feces can have multiple causes, some serious, some benign.
First thing - can we have more history about the fish, the tank, etc.? There is a link below my name here that lists some info that is important to know, but you may not see it if you are on a phone - if so, check out the hints and tips link at the top of the fish disease section.

I’ve had both clowns since April. One clown had obvious white stringy poop and was skeleton looking end of July I treated with prizapro since has been doing great. Mid September is the last time I added to the tank and I added zoas. Since everything has gone well 2 days ago notice that poop nothing again. But…I will say there were so many pests on the zoas I dipped them twice. I do need to order a protein skimmer but haven’t found a good one for the Nano. I don’t know if that has anything to do with it.

I wonder if dosing with prazipro again might be a good idea? If it helped before, maybe the original issue came back?
