Ok, i have already got a topic on here about the fish in concern but, all explain anyway. I have a female dalmatian molly that had popeye for 1 day then went away the next but then she formed fluffy cotton like fungus on her tail, fin and parts of her body,

So today i started on Protozin.. after 4 hours everything is fine (she even starting to eat and swim with other fish), now its coming up to 12 hours after i added it and my other molly's are now starting to flick and rub against objects but they never did this previously. (even my baby dalmatian molly fry have started this rubbing/flicking).

am starting to wonder if the treatment could of caused this to spread to the other fish? .. my platy's all seem fine tho even the baby platy fry seem fine :S its strange.

This is the first time am using treatments so am not sure. I also have got some Myxazin but it says that am not allowed to use these together (i just wanted that to treat her popeye but since its more of an infection i decided to start on Protozin first) so i will use that 4 days after the Protazin treatment has ended. if anybody has any idea's/suggestions i would be grateful

Thanks,
Leann

Doesnt matter she died. other one looks like he wil die tomorrow too...
 
Sorry to hear that :(

If the other fishies have started exhibiting signs that quickly i would say they already had what your molly died off. It just came to a head real quick.

Mollies are delicate fish i found that need perfect conditions and health to survive.

I havent used those two treatments before so cant offer you any advice on them but im sure there will be someone in here who can :)
