Aquarium Advice Regular
I am fairly new to keeping mollies. I have had my tank a little over 4 months now and everything seemed to be doing okay. The other day an acquaintance of a friend was giving away some java fern and moss and my friend asked me if she could could me any. Of course I said yes, I wouldn't pass up the chance for some free lie plants that otherwise cost me an arm and a leg in the store. She said she had a pretty established tank and I felt comfortable with getting these plants. It has been about 4 days since i did my water change and added these plants. I tested my water today and it tested perfect. Some of my bigger mollies have rapid heavy breathing and are floating backwards like doing a back flip and then come back and swim like normal. Also I have noticed one of them scratching themselves on the gravel, plants and decorations. What could be happening here? Did I get infected plants? My smaller tank got some of the plants as well and my tetra seem fine. What can I do to see what the problem is or what can i do to help? I have two filters running and my water tests were perfect and my temp is just right. I am worried I made a huge mistake adding those plants.
I also rinsed them before I added them...
