Black male Molly

[DonnaW]

I have got a molly in an established tank, I have had him for about 10 months he was fully grown when we got him, his back end/tail started to drop to the point where he stopped swimming and ended up on his side and doesn't swim. At first we thought it was swim bladder until his tail started to curl up. I have given him a salt bath and his tail has improved but he is still in the same position he is moving around the bottom of the isolation tank a little but not much. I am not sure how long I leave him in the salt bath for and and if there is anything else I can do if it is fungal or parasite.

Thanks for your help in advance

Hi donna.
Other than your typical water quality nagging, watch feeding, warm tank, Bacteria cycled
I would need more list of their symptoms before they die in order to really help.
Watch for
Bloating, stringy feces, mouth or body fungus, tail rot, cuved spine/wasting
Seen any of those on other mollies, and please i know he had to have SOMETHING like that.
