Guppys/platys/mollie Acting Strange

[Ethan040]

Ive got 2 guppys 5 platys and 2 mollies and there all acting a bit strange there all staying to the bottom of the tank and staying near each other there moving about but always staying at the bottom only the odd times going up ive noticed on of the guppys is a male and he seems to be flicking his bits on the sand? there all about the same age (3 months old) give or tank a few days exept for one of the mollies hes a full grown male

Anyone have any idea what there doing? all water stats are spot on, all the other fish are acting normal the tanks stats are all the same as usual all spot on they get a good diet they have soft boiled deshelled peas, flake, cucumber and flake and they eat the BN plecs algea wafers.

Any signs of excess mucas, darting, erratic swimming, laboured breathing. One of the guppys and a mollie did have a flick on the sand yesterday but nothing today and what ive put in the first post.
What do the gills look like. all seem fine
Any red pin prick marks on the fish, or red sores. no marks or anything the darker patches on the guppys backs but they are only 3 months old so could be just colours coming though?

When the fish are resting on the subsrate do they lean to oneside.
Can all the fish maintain balance in the water.
Do any of the fish try to get off the substrate only to fall back down again.

Hi, no they are all swimming fine and keeping there balance they seem to be ok now i think i may have just been paranoid from a bit of strange behaviour.

Thanks for your help il post here again if any start acting odd again.

Ok.
it's not pointing towards anything at this stage.
If any more developements, get back to the board.

Good Luck.
