Hiya all, hope we are all well. One of our black mollies has now developed like a grey shiny like coat over its gills(not over all its body), could this be slime disease?? They are never well these mollies,they get over stuff but pick other things up bless em, our water stats are fine,we changed water just over a week ago,and all other tank mates are fine. :unsure: Thanks in advance. xx
 
It can be a sign of flukes or other parasites.
Any signs of flicking and rubbing or increased breathing.

If its slimy and sort of sparkly it sounds like Velvet Disease.
 
Turn tanks light out and shine a torch on the fish to see if any golden spots or patches glow up a golden colour.
