Hey,

Two of my mollies, the mother, and a child, had sticking out scales and a white coat growing on their scales.

Sadly around 5 days later after finding them like this the mother died. So i was exspecting the child to die too. I didn't treat the water with anything. The mother was old, but would this happen because of her age?

But 3 days later the child looked fine, no sticking out scales and no white coat. How did this happen? Do any of you know? The childs fine now, eating well and looking fine. It healed by itself... or did it?

Do any of you know?

Thx, Missy

You can mail me a reply if you want also.
 
Are there more childs in the tank that look like that?
b/c hen it could have died but keep and eye out
or
Fish have immune systems too. just like people. they ca get over sicknesses.l plenty of mine have. and since you didnt treat th water be sure non of the other fish wont get it.
 
Hey,
sorry maybe my post wasn't clear... the child survived it healed by itself..
I gave away the other children to the fish shop before the mother and child became ill looking.
 
as they said its like people we do heal oureselves.however somehting caused the fungus etc so id get your water tested
 
Yeh, don't worry i think it was the filter need a clean out.. i did it a week ago and now is all jolly :D
