Fluffy white fish?

[Alicks]

My guarami's and balloon mollies seem to have gone fluffy and white over night

Does anyone know what it could be? Or how to treat it? Or how to stop it from spreading?

Thanks Alex

Do you have any pictures? Could it be fungus?

They seem to have lost there fins!

Sorry about the appalling quality I can upload some better photos tomorrow. The golden gurarmis seem to be following them quite closely.

I've moved the two mollies to a 'hospital tank' there all fluffy & I don't know if the move has made them weaker because they seem to be struggling to swim now...

How are your water parameters (amm/nitrite/nitrate) in both your main tank and your hospital tank? Have you introduced any new fish lately? Trying to figure out whats going on and more information will help!

First thing to check is the water: post ammonia, nitrite, nitrate when you can get those results if you have a test kit. How long has the tank been set up? How often do you do water changes?

What size tank and what are the fish in there? Perhaps another fish attacked them?
