Momma black molly have babies 2 days ago and looks sick?

All of the babies(seperated in a net) and other fish appear fine but the momma fish is at the bottom of the tank at times and seem fine at others. What should I do?


Answers:    Although there have been (is) seriously of debate over Mollies and salt I've never be able to save Mollies healthy minus it. I use marine saline and use a hydrometer to keep track of the brackish content, 1.001 to 1.002 specific gravity seems to hang on to them happy.

About a week ago I feel sorry for a lone Molly in a pet shop, she looked close to she wouldn't make it through the dark. I brought her home, put her in my reservoir and within 24 hours she started ingestion and within 3 days she be very moving and scrambling for food near along with the rest.

I suggest checking out: http://www.fishforums.net/content/Common... and/or doing a explore on Mollies and salt. I assume all your mollies will benefit from it.
this also happen to me and my molly died. they said putting a little saline like 1tbsp. will serve.
