Why is My Fish's Poo this color?

[Goldfish4EVER]

Hello! I've been observing my Goldfish a LOT, so I sometimes noticed them having reddish poo. I feed them red AND green pellets(a lot more of green), so how come there is more red poo than green? If i'm correct, their poo is based on what they ate, so I'm getting very worried they have a health issue. Any ideas why?

Nothing to worry about here, green and red poop is fine and yes it tends to be what you feed them.

White poop is when you need to be more concerned as thats a sign somethings not right with your fish

They have gut bacteria to digest any ‘green’, so they won’t do green poo unless they’ve lost their gut bacteria.
Red poo means they’re not fully digesting the red pellets, which may mean it’s a bit high in protein for them.
