Can anyone help? Molly in quarantine tank started off fairly active but over course of the 30 day period is now not doing much swimming, just kinda treading water in one or two places throughout the day. Although she does move around every once in a while.
She was initially doing a fish in cycle but was bailed out two weeks ago when my angels plus active filter arrived. But the ammo never got above 0.25,and never saw any nitrites and water params have been perfect 0s since then with maybe 5-10 nitrates.
I don't see any spots or visible signs of illness. I thought she was just lonely or something so being at the end of her 30 QT period I decided to drip acclimate her and move her into the display tank today w my 3 other mollies and neon tetras. She poked around a bit but then just the same darn thing again.....just treading water in one spot not interacting with other fish. I moved her back into QT tonight after only 4 hrs in the main tank. What could this be? It's definitely not "normal" ... Not how she acted when I first brought her home and certainly not how all my other Molly fish act. Can anyone help?
