Sorry to hear about your molly. Without more info, I can't really tell you what might be wrong, or what to do about it. I am attaching a link, though, where you can look up its symptoms and find out what you need to do. Another thing to consider is if it just isn't being as lively as in the store, look at the water quality (expecially if this is a new tank), specifically ammonia. If you don't have a test kit yoursely\f, you can probably get a sample of your tank water tested at a good fish/pet store. Just take a small amount in a clean container. One other thing that may be affecting your molly is that they like some salt in their water. This shouldn't be table salt (if it's iodized salt), but canning salt, kosher salt, or aquarium salt are all okay.

Hope your molly gets well!

Sorry to hear that. We need a bit more info though. Spots, fin rot, lethargic, strange swimming attitude, what?

Basic molly tank set up means that you often need to add just a bit of tank salt to the water. Mollies are strange in that they can live in salt or fresh. They like a little salt. It helps keep parasites under control. I've even used mollies to cycle a salt water tank or two. They did just great.

Shoot us some more info..... please....
