My balloon Molly is pooping out white/clear fecal matter. Any idea? Is this normal?

It's generally the same color as what they're eating. You could try giving her a shelled pea to sea if that clears out her system. Mollies love peas as a treat anyhow. (Still trying to figure out what veggies mollies don't love as a treat. But shelled peas are great.)
 
mollies are more veggie eaters as a primary diet. they are vegitarians even though they will eat any thing. my breeders are fed marine veggie diets. a little staple. Boiled greenleafy lettauce 2 whole leaves every day are hung in there tank. They destroy it. Mollies don't live long usualy with out greens. Mine love kelp. But I also breed my mollies in 75% marine salt.
 
Mine get dandelion greens in their tanks. I use pleco wafers mainly for their food then I add in other things. Along with zucchini or summer squash. They LOVE yellow squash. Green beans I throw in sometimes. I do clip in seaweed from time to time. Peas always go over well.

My set up is far more freshwater than yours. (I have a small amount of salt, but nothing like that.)
