5 gallon tank, 3 fish, 1 goldfish, 1 tetra, 1 mollie fish. Sounds odd I know but I have a heater and they get along great... this is the first problem I have encountered so far. I just got back from spring break and i put a week feeder in there.

I recently got a molly fish... I'm not sure if it's any specific kind of molly fish (she was just sooo cute!) But now her belly is getting so fat. It's like half a circle hanging down, not fat all over. I don't know if I am feeding her too much or not (she poops all the time). She has black...
