What is this infection?
Please note: I purchased two of them 2-3 days ago & they are "wild" caught. I made the mistake of dropping them into my tank after 20-30 minutes of temperature acclimation (leaving bag floating) & understand what I did wrong. However, they are like this now? What is it and what do I need to do?

I think it's fine. Do you mean a little white spot on it?

The white fluffy bits is a viral infection Lymphocystis, clears on it's own.
The white stringy poop could be worms tho, that'd need treating. |

Is that long white string coming from the fish? If so it needs to be treated ASAP for Internal Parasites. I would just use Prazi Pro in your display tank. Just follow the directions exactly.

I came home today @ 9ish pm and found the big oscellaris dead. Should I worry about the infection spreading to the smaller one? They are wild and I think they were newly transported. The two oscellaris wasn't even in the lfs's display tanks yet...still in there shipping box.
