Molly

[paul_219]

I have a female molly laying in the bottom of the tank behind the wand. Could she be pregnant its stomach isnt that fat? 2 of my mollies lay down could they be pregnant? 10x

Is she sitting on her belly or laying on her side?

If she is fat and pregnant then most likely she is trying to spawn. A good thing to put in would be some sort of spawning grass or a spawing mat. This would make the females feeel more comfortable.

i had a platy thaat lay on her side the other day. i put an air stone in and treated the water for a fungus i suspected was affecting another fish in the tank. 24hrs later there seems to be a good recovery; toutch wood.

hope this helps

Do you have water stats avaliable?
Do you see any other physical features wrong with her?
Does the temperature stay consistent?
What size tank is she in and what are the tankmates?
