Unfortunately I had to do a full water change on my tank as I had to move it. All but one of my fish seem happy so far (its been a day and a half). One of my two black mollies has a bulging eye. All my levels are good.. the only thing I noticed is that my temp is too low. I'm workin g on bringing it up slowly but I don't want to shock them. I also bought API stress coat and added the recommended amount. His eye seems to have gone down a little but I'm not sure if I should add more stress coat, wait it out, get something else to help, separate him (which would be hard as I don't have an imidiate second tank, although I am working on that!), or what. With all my other fish being healthy, from what I can see, I don't want to harm them by going crazy trying to fix this molly.
I am new at this whole aqarium thing and I am becoming obsessed. I want to get at least one more tank I love it so much. On the other hand though I'm nervouse because I have had some major ups and downs with this tank; so I want to master it before I get another.
Anyway this tank is 25 gal with 7 neon tetras, two black mollies (had three one died in the one of the down phases), two spotted mollies (also had three one died), four zebra danios, one small catfish (only suppose to get 3-4"), and a siamese algae eater.
Any advice on how to help my one little black molly would be greatly appreciated, I'd hate to loose another one.
Also one last thing... did I over crowd my tank? The people at petsmart said I was fine but I'm so worried about it cause I've heard that causes stress on the fish which can lead to death too.
Thanks in advance!
