How to detect malware?

I have a macbook. I stupidly fell for a phishing email (that looked like it was from Wells Fargo). I downloaded and opened the attachment. I don't presently have virus protection, but that will change tomorrow. Should I be worried that I downloaded a virus or something equivalent. My computer hasn't slowed down, nor do I have pop ups. There aren't any symptoms of my computer being infected. Is there other action I should take besides installing a virus protection program? I really don't want problems from my stupid action.
