No clue what’s going on

Oscar has been acting really crazy the last couple days, running around her tank non stop all day, jumping into the side of her tank and not settling down when the lights turn off, none of this is normal behavior for her. She hasn’t eaten in 2-3 days and won’t even eat out of my hand. She is pooping almost everyday when she usual poops every couple days. I also noticed on her log a mucus looking blob which I have no clue where it can from. I have noticed that when she poops it takes her vent a couple minutes to go back to normal. She also seems lighter when I pick her up. Is this just like a phase or could it be something serious?

Losing weight is not good it can be parasites. Take a stool sample to the vet.

She might have eggs. Setting up a lay box for her would be a good idea.

I thought of that but I cannot feel anything in her belly. Her belly is soft. But I will set a lay box for her in case.
