Aquarium Advice FINatic
I have no clue what happened. My fishies were perfectly fine this morning, all looking and eating well.
We came home this afternoon and my daughter tells me that one of the mollies is floating at the top of the tank. Ack.
And she was right, the molly who is the mother of all my little fry was definitely doing the backstroke. The thing I can't figure out is why is looks so strange--she is completely bloated and huge. I do not see anything odd on her, no spots or patches or anything. Just a big body--she looks like a puffer.
Is this a sign of some disease or something? I'm going to check my water parameters now, too. All the other fish seem fine.
The only thing different is I've added my newly treated piece of driftwood, which I did two days ago. Could this have something to do with it?
Well, I'd better go get my net...
