1 guppy male
1 mollie male
(other side)
3 guppy females
1 female swordtail
1 dalmatian mollie

my dalmatian mollie has this stuff growing on her tail a sort of fluffy fungus on trees and my male mollie has like 2 little bubblie thingies in his tail
is it a parasite
help i need to get medication for them!
 
What colour are the bubbles thinking translucent.
Any signs of laboured breathing or flicking and rubbing against objects.
Are the bubbles on top or beneath the skin just to check thats all.
How big are the bubbles, small, meduim, or large.
 
ok so on the female there are 2 (1 medium 1 large) ulcer like things the medium one right before her dorsel fina dn the large one like right behind her little like flapper fin thing on the sides of her body and the male now has the the little trailing things were the bubble things were and they just sit there they dont move and almost have there fins clamped to their bodies and t6hey dont realy eat or interate with the other live bearers in the tank
 
The trailing thing did it look like cotton,fungus or a parasite with a forked tail.
 
ok so on the male it looks like its in between the layers of skin on the tail or on both sides and its like in his mouth also like trailing out and around the edges and on the female th ulcer thing on top of her head kinda looks like raised scales and the one behind her little fin on her side is like almost fuzzy looking and its the same her tail but worse and its NOT in HER mouth only in his and mu guppies don't seem to have it they are as active and eating well like normally and it diffentitly doesn't look like a thing with a forked tail its fuzzy looking
 
Do the strings sounds like mouth fungus.
 
ok i cant my camera is not good enough but i can tell you it looks like the fungus thread things are coming out of the raised scales any more questions i can answer them all

yea but its only like one thread and only one the male
 
Maracyn one and two, or maracyn plus, good luck.
 
i got jungle brand external parasite guard i put it in like 10 minutes ago its pink stuff that looks like sugar
 
That meds for parasites.
Does it say it treats mouth fungus columnaris.
 
it says it treats for:"external parasites on tropical fish including:fice lice,body flukes, gill flukes, gill mites and anchor worms."
 
Your fish has mouth fungus so why have you bought a parasite med.
