When I first saw it I thought a breeding part like africans use to breed but, then I saw your female. I have no idea what it could be.

that is the female though i had that feeling but im pretty sure it is not...

What do you feed the fish.

Long stringy white poo can be consitpation, bacterial infection, internal parasites.

Try some peas.

Is the enus enlarged or red and inflamed.

 

[razer121]

no anus is not enlarged, red or enflamed. erm there feed on just normal tropical fish food, they get a pea once every 2 weeks,

 

[WILDER]

Improve the fish diet with frozen foods like brime shrimp and daphnia.
Always research the fish diet needs.
Some fish will eat veg.

I would feed some peas first to see if it clears up.

ok, should i add carbon to get rid of any of the interpet? i happen to have dried brine shrimp, is that any good?

Once med course has finished water change and run some fresh black carbon to remove the med.
