Sorry to hear that!
As soon as I read 'long stringy poop' I knew it was a parasite. Good luck with your next fish!
API General Cure is a bit on the spendy side (around $15 for a pack) but it lasts and the doses are super concentrated if you have a small tank (one packet for me treats about two tanks fully if I ever need it to). If you ever get a parasite again, you could try that.
