    Mollie fish mystery parasite?

    Hello! This probably isn't the place for this thread but I can't figure out where to put it. My apologies. I have two mollies in a ten gallon, some major dieoff has happened with all of my tanks recently. The two in the ten are Tangent, a dalmatian molly, and her fry Julianna, who is about 6...

    Also, I have shells and coral from a vacation a while back. Can that help somehow?

    Is there something I can do in the meantime to keep them alive until I can get to the store? Something I might have at home? Although I do drive I don't have my own vehicle

    I really need encouragement

    Just know that no matter how bad you mess up, you can't mess up as bad as I did.

    Another note is that when I turn off the lights Poe seems to regain some energy, pulling herself up and moving around the tank a little before laying back down. Are my lights too strong ???

    Nitrite and nitrate levels both came out fine, but the GH is really bad

    Update: Poe and Tangent are still alive, I did a water test, and my gh, kh, and pH are all too low. I added a very small amount of baking soda to make it tolerable for the moment. I have read that adding coral to a tank can help harden water. I have little pieces of coral and some shells I...

    Another question, about Hosae. He was a dalmation Molly fry, and this isn't the first time he had survived an illness. He was about four months old, so a decent size. He died very very quickly, but I thought swim bladder infections didn't kill immediately? From first symptoms to death he was...

    I moved the Otto to a separate tank, and he seems better. Does a carbon filter remove the minerals the Molly's need? Like I said I got an Aqueon 10 gallon and use the filter it came with, the only extra thing I have in there is a heater

    I don't have a testing kit yet, but might have one by this evening. Poe seems to be laying near the back of the tank and does move around a little more when the tank light is off and sunlight is the only light. Maybe my lights are too strong as well? I can't really gauge how bad things are...

    Sorry! I thought I hit the live-bearers forum! Update: Poe is still laying on bottom of tank, breathing kind of heavily. Also, I forgot to mention, but every Molly I introduced to the tank was female. Tangent is slow in moving around the tank, and is staying in Poe's general location

    Hi, I'm new here, my name is Katie. I am a very new fish owner who has been very very lucky, but I think my luck is running out. I have a ten gallon tank, Aqueon if it matters, with three Anubis plants, one fern looking plant, and a piece of driftwood along with the standard gravel etc. The past...
