So i have fed the little guy peas and that has not helped.. I have also tried the epsom salt.. still no changes in his swimming.. any one else out there have any ideas on whats going on or what I can try next. thanks

ok and thanks..... maybe I will try him with peas and see if more info comes along on how to deal with him.

I thought swim bladder but what I don't get is hes been doing this on and off since he was born even before his first feed. So that made me think something else.. but I'm seriously clueless on this and what to do with the little guy.

Ok so my female had fry about a week and half ago. I was able to save 9 fry. Out of these fry I have one since the day he was born he would be swimming fine one minute then all of a sudden he starts to spin out of control all over the tank hitting bottom then spin to the top, a few times I...

ya the tank was set up for fry with sponge over intake. I just moved out 4 juvinile platies that the Julie's where with. so I will get the babys in that tank tonight thanks

Quick question.. Would 10 2 day old molly fry be ok in a 20 gallon tank with 3 julie cats? right now the fry are in a 5 gallon but im wanting to move them into the 20 gallon and was hoping I could leave the julie cories in there to clean up after the little guys.

Yes as wildroseofky stated I would do the same,,, let the strong survive.. Just outta curiosity How many of those molly's are females?

very easy to do . google it there are lots of DIY hatcherys out there telling you exactly how to do it. I use a pickle jar and air bubbler.

there is fry food out there you can buy or u could crush fish food into a fine powder with your fingers. or you cou hatch brine shrimp eggs. i used fry food and hatched my own brine shrimp

as stated until fry are bigger than any mouth in that tank. I have a few 5 week old dalmation fry and there still in there own tank as there not bigger than my Angels mouth yet. if you have a spare tank move the baby's in there as they will grow faster than in a breeder box. just make sure you...

down by the anal area the females have a fan shape to them and males have a tube shape oh and mollys breed like crazy... females don't even need a male there all the time to have babys as they can store the sperm for a while. you may have your hands full hehe.. I have 1 male and 2 females and...

approx 3 months old, if they are well reared.

ya I have a breeder tank set up and ready for these moments. I thought about moving mom but i have enough hiding places for the lil ones until i can catch them and move them.

hmmm ok thanks.. well I'll head to the lfs today and check out what catches my eye and see if theres anything else I'm interested in.. I may have to get the 40 set up soon so I can get some of these other fish lol

I'm not to concerned about the bio-load one these guys hit full size... I have 2 AC110 on this tank and have a back-up tank (40gal) I just picked up on kijiji for dirt cheap. But I also don't want to over stalk and start having issues :) I did pick up 3 rummynose tonight Ill go back and pick...

Male? The males are more colorful and have black edges on their dorsal and anal fins. The females are less colorful, often rounder, and have yellowish fins without the distinct black edges seen in males

could be what they call black spot use OTC medication for parasites. Spots - cysts) may remain after treatment. also could just be nothing... I would just keep an eye on it and maybe add so salt just incase as stated already.

I have 2 AC 110 on my 55 gallon.. and they do an amazing job.

zebra danios would be a good add i think..... you could add a lot of choices.. I have 10 neon tetras, 3 dalmatian mollies, 3 rummynose tetras (plan on getting more) , 6 rasboras, 3 swordtails (would like more they are entertaining) .. 2 angels. this may help you decide on things,, PETCO.com...

i have 2 female mollies and one male there all a couple inches long. the females are pretty layed back and chill with the sword tails all the time.

they where approx an inch. ya I'm think the male Molly is the culprit. probably up to no good at night. I noticed today the male Molly is trying to push around the little rummynose now so will keep an eye out. the rummy nose is hiding in a small cave and when he's out he's starting to hide in...

like I said if they jumped out there is no way the dogs could have got them. they are to big to even get near the area they would have been found. I am clueless on this all I could think of was one of the other got them, but 3 all at once in less than 12hrs just seems like to much in just a...
