My black molly has white specks on its side, sailfin, mouth, and around its eyes. Around the eye it looks puffy. He is acting normal right now. He was fine when I left work on Friday and this morning I found him like that.
What would be the best treatment for him? I'm thinking it is Ick that he has. Would it be better to use salt (he has not been kept in brackish water for at least a year or more) or Ick medicine? Does Ick medicine ever go bad? Do I have to use Salt from a fish store?
I'll be taking him home tonight where I'll have to switch my 10 gallon tank from a breeding tank to hospital tank. Thankfully I don't have any baby fish right now and my breeding fish are probably not pregnant. If I go with salt how much should I use in a 10 gallon tank? The black molly will be the only fish in the tank and I'll remove all the plants from that tank too.
