My tank bred true percs also hav white wastes... But if its tank bred and its an aussie how could it be cyanide case for mine... If its intestine bacteria how to cure?? Sorry bro chamty borrowed ur thread... :whistle

Can read the links Gouldian provided for Haxamita. Getting metronidazole however is a pain as LFS here don't carry them. Can get from ebay or vets(v. ex!) I can prob spare you a few to tide through a few days. Or you can buy from me if you need more :) my bottle of 100 tablets can definitely last me way past the expiry date anyway.

I did some research online and read that once the fish displays signs of internal parasites, it will always have it if within if not cured. If it does not display the symptoms, it just means that the fish is strong enough presently to combat the parasites. However if it is weakened in future (by stress or other diseases), might eventually succumb to it.

Call me kiasu, but I still prefer to treat my healthy and greedy cheap chromis and sleep better at night :paiseh:

White poop = Death

Highly likely that its cyanide poisoning. I've bought fishes from there before, and got a few cases of fishes with suspected cyanide poisoning.

My lion regularly produces white feces but has been doing fine for 3 months now. Maybe for some fish it's normal for it to be white? ^_^
