6~last week.. once a week ... about half..
7~I've had her for about... a month or two

^^; sorry that wasn't very detailed.. I think I know what it is cuz I saw this medication stuff at petsmart today but I didn't want to buy anything until I knew what it was

She just gave birth earlier this morning
 
Your tank appears to be over crowded. Mollies and bettas become prone to certain fungal infections when stressed. If it were my tank I'd begin doing daily 25% water changes to improve the water quality.

Also I think you should gradually lower the temperature to 78. This will help prevent bacteria from becoming a problem.
 
*sigh* it doesn't really matter much now anyways... she died overnight.... but I'll take your advice, thanks
 
That's alright.... I still got her babies that she gave yesterday.. I think it may have partly to do with her giving birth because she was kinda blah the day before and the day she had birth... @____@ now I just gotta keep this litter alive because 14 out of 22 were missing when I got home from school *huggles other 8 protectively*
