Monitor your fishes, they may suffer from internal parasite or the white string poo may be resulted from them pecking on other stuff in your tank. If you resume your feeding and their poo is still not back to normal, then its internal parasite.

Internal parasite must use medication.

Soak food in Epsom salt first for abt ten min. Then feed, the least toxic way to eradicate intestinal parasites.

I am currently treating my frontosa and aro for the same symptom too. Using Waterlife octozin + 0.3% salt.
Saw improvement on the 2nd day.
