Well a couple of days ago I noticed this female betta pooping white do put her in a vase and started her for parasites as I remember someone saying that its a sign for parasites well I dosed her with general cure but no go. I hav another showing symptoms as well. Staying to the surface, moving little, and the white stringy poo. My water is good no amonia, nitrites, nitrates good, nothing seems wrong with the tank as well all the other fish seem fine. So wat kind of meds should I use? Is my main question.

remove any infected or possibly infected fish. It may be a number of infections or bloat.
start feeding them shelled peas and try to get some Paracide-D for treatment.

okay kool thanks. ya ive seperated them but i doubt its bloat since the first female isnt really eating. and the other girl is eating a little bit but not much by my standards lol. theyr always ravaneous not lik i dont want food thats wat is making me worried. i really cant lose the second female since she is a pair with my cellophane boy. of course i dont want to lose the other female but that second one will be hard to replace.

shelled peas will help even if it's not bloat. Helps move matter through the digestive tract.

Try putting and feeding crushed garlic in the water. Garlic is a great cure for most anything.

crush it up small enough for them to eat then put some treated water in it. It's better if it sets overnight but you can use it now if you want. You can put the garlic in for them or just the juice. You can also mix it in there food.

okay the puffy lips r getting better but 2 of my females stay at the top??? one does move round and do all that but the other no. the ones that does move round does eat and the other one not so much. wat should i do with them and im doing a water change in my 100, how much should i change and how often? they wont go in there until i think it is safe or you guys think it should be fine. im shooting for a 50% water change and go from there.
