whilst in the process of typing my last reply, i have noticed one of the other mollys seems to be a little lethargic! please tell me all the fish are not going to die! have put this one in a container in the tank and will monitor it closely. i cant decide if it has a white spot on its lip or if...

so could the siamese have killed the molly? there were no visible signs of damage on it.

just checked and he was in front of me all the time on a piece of brown rock. very hard to see if you werent looking very closely ( me ) thank you for your help.

that sounds about right. have looked in the tank but cant seem to find the plec. what sort of fish is it and what colour would it be?

sorry to say the siamese is dead. i have done a partial water change so hopefully the rest of the fish will be ok. i had sent my son out to the fish shop after he had taken the pics to get some medication but it was too late. i spoke to the owner again who is upset mainly for me as he said it...
