molly disease

Hi, I’m pretty new to fish keeping and this is my first time keeping mollies. My tank is over 1 month old and had been cycled before adding any fish. The tank now contains 3 mollies and 3 emerald eye rasboras. It’s only the mollies that are getting sick. They start acting lethargic and then...

I recently donated all of the juvenile mollies in my tank to the LFS I work at, and now that there’s more room in the tank my mollies have been “doing it” nonstop. Yesterday I noticed that my black molly’s belly was a bit bigger and more squared off, but now I’m concerned. She’s removing herself...

Hello all, I noticed yesterday my Molly was laying on its side at the bottom of the tank. I put him in a breeder net that sits at the top of the tank to prevent him from being picked on and to be closer to the surface for oxygen after doing a 30% water change. He then started to spin and his...

Hi All, I'm brand new here. My beautiful yellow dalmatian molly, Champa, has a big hole on the side. I first noticed some white mass last night. I searched everywhere and am unsure what it could be. I ordered some aquarium salt as I found that it could assist with wounds. Today, the white mass...

Hi So I bought a black “gold dust” molly from petco a month ago and ever since I introduced her (name is Eva) to the tank I’ve been thinking that she may not be a gold dust molly but a black one with velvet. When I first saw her she was in the tank with a bunch of gold panda mollies ALL MALE...

Hi, After my last message about a few fish dying, there seemed to be no issues after I gave the tank a water change...until now. One of my mollies seems to be swimming around a lot slower and it’s scales have puffed up, I had a look on the internet and believe it might be dropsy? Is there anyway...

My molly fish has a small amount of white fuzzy stuff under his eyes. I moved him into a hospital tank and was going to go to the pet store to grab some anti-fungal treatment. Is that what this is? The camera won't pick up anything. But this is similar to what it is... Not as swollen and...

HEY GUYS THIS IS SUPER URGENT! So my Dalmatian molly (Sherlock) was doing fine ever since I purchased him. However, I just purchased a new tank with a filter and heater. I set the heater to around 75 degrees and everything was fine until this morning. One of my girls went into hiding in the...

Hello fish experts, My molly started having these white dots all over his body two weeks ago. I moved him to a 3 gal tank and treated him with Tetra Lifeguard and cured him. Yesterday I moved him back to my large tank and today he was back like this. These look like ick but I wasn't sure if...
