Had this ocellaris clown since I started my tank . Nemo been sick as of late. He has been through copper and prazipro last month and made it through . He's been back in the DT for 3 weeks . Eats like a pig but stopped eating last week or longer.

See white poop and think it's flukes. Dosed prazipro ... no effect

Took him out and placed him in qt. Dosed general cure 2 times now and still not eating . Still seeing white poop . No signs of ick or velvet and believe this is an intrenal parasite. What's next?

Nemo is finally eating again. He seems to be recovering very nicely. The general cure appeared to do its job. No more stringy white poop!

Not sure what to do with him now that is there is 2 new clowns in the DT and he’ll be the odd man out.

Going to bring him back to the LHS to get a royal gramma.

Could you post a link to the General Cure product? Did you dose the food, or the tank?

I used this. Dosed 1 packet per 10 gallon. Which was perfect since my QT is a 10g tank. You’ll need to dose it twice . Instructions on package. Works great .

I mixed 1 packet with some tank water and dispense it right in the tank . Make sure you have an air stone to aerate the water for oxygen
