    What is string poop? I saw some come out of my Regal tang. He promptly ate it. Maybe it was a worm?

    I would say it was mostly filamentous algae, specially if it came out of an algae grazer

    its just long poop, some fish have very small buttholes and big colon(or where ever feces sit). so its like they are making one long spaghetti noodle.
