Well, I do't know Bio::SeqIO, but at first sight this:
while($fh != -1) { $sequence = stream->next_seq @sequences = $sequence; }
looks strange, for
  1. both the name of $fh, and the way it is created suggest that it is a filehandle and thus
    while(<$fh>)
    would be the typical way to iterate over it;
  2. none of the statements in the block seem to modify $fh, so that whatever the correct test is, it is unlikely to ever succeed;
  3. stream->next_seq may well be correct, but it is more likely that there's a missing $ sigil;
  4. further, there's a missing semicolon. This code wouldn't even compile. It is recommended to post real code. It is recommended to paste rather than retype.
