My female black molly just had about 20+ babies. I noticed today that once I put her back into the tank, the male has been attacking her, and bit her in several places. The babies are in a breeding net in the tank, from past experience, I've found this to be the best way to keep them alive, just in the same tank but in the net. My question is if I put in some Melafix or Quickfix, to help out the female, will this hurt the newborn babies. They are only 3 days old. Thanks for your help. I don't want to kill the babies, but I do want to help the mother.
 
If you have no scaless fish add some aquarium salt instead.
