Fish Crazy
3 mollies....
1 was swimming fine just with fins clamped on tuesday, wednesday morning i found her face down in the gravel but still breathing and eventually she passed away. She did have some kind of blotches on her fin but not ich (ive had this many times and know what it looks like).
Now the remaining 2 have the same blotches and are keeping their heads on the surface of the water, not eating either (perhaps cos they cant get to the food properly or something) They also appear to be shaking slightly.
Tested water yesterday and nitrite and ammonia were nil but nitrate was high, i did 1/3 water change last night which perked them up for about 10 mins but then they returned to their sorry state. I also have neons, guppys, pleco and platies who are absolutely fine.
Tank has been set up since mid july
Any ideas please??
