I bought a female molly about two weeks to discover last week that she had given birth to fry. She has not been doing good since then. She is at her worse today, still breathing, but not eating. She is resting among the plants in the tank, head facing the bottom of the tank as if she's about to sink. I bought a tank divider to make sure the other fish wouldn't be picking on her.

Is this common among fish? Or could she just be sick?
 
Keep the lights off and leave her alone, sometimes livebarers do go bad after giving birth, happened to me.
