Hi!! I have a 10 gallon tank with 3 black mollies and 3 pink skirt tetras. I have had this tank for a month and a couple of weeks now. It also includes a water heater and a whisper bio filter. My water quality is pretty good ( i.e. PH, nitrite, chlorine, etc. are at optimum level) and my temperature is at 80 degrees. Recently, my mollies have been "shimmying" and kind of staying in one place. One of them tend to stay near the surface of the water. That same molly just recently excreted white-looking feces as well. What is going on? Is that wierd or normal?
I've been researching, and all I've ended up with is a load of "possible" outcomes such as fungus, nitrite poisoning, worms, and the need for more aeration. How do you suggest that I go on treating my fish? Is it safe to add fungus treatment, worm treatment, and all that stuff all at the same time since I cannot pinpoint exactly what is wrong? Or do I just try things one at a time? HELP!! Where do I start?
