So is it normal for cardinal tetras to have white poo? I just saw mine have some. It was quite long.
Parameters:
ph 7.2
Ammonia 0.1
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0-5
Symptoms:
Bloated-though I think this is because they are being fed a lot, but even when not fed a lot are still fat.
Long white poo
I noticed this yesterday morning, and it is now nightime.

Also, I have read the thread on what to do if your fish has stringy white poo.
 
Does look quite normal to me.
I believe you're feeding a lot right now (to condition them) ? If so what goes in will come out again.

No it is not normal for any fish to have white poop.

If it only happens once the fish might have an upset stomach. If it happens again, then it's possibly worms.

The fat fish are probably females with eggs.

Is it white or light collored? Doesn't look stringy to me

Actually I've only been feeding them fish food but will start feeding them brine shrimp. So it's not normal.
