After feeding my small Shubunkin "Jelly" yesterday I noticed that he was suffering from trailing waste of about 1-2cm around 1 hour after I fed him. He is in a tank with a 5 year old Comet so I dropped in some Tetra flakes along with a small block of Tubifex. I done a 25-30% water change about 3 hours before I noticed the trailing waste and I always de-chlorinate the water. I have a 70 ltr tank and dropped a couple of capfuls of TapSafe in when I made the water change.

Is this something that I should be worrying about? I haven't noticed trailing waste from him before so I was wondering what would cause this and if there is anything I can do to prevent it happening again (if it's something I should be concerned about).
