Molly :(

Hi all,

i found my two mollies hiding between the heater and filter this is a rather dense area, as i was feeding my fish i noticed that when the mollies came out one of them was floating on an angle, i thought it could have died although i noticed the eyes were still moving. i turned off my air pump and watched it then switched it back on and it started to move normal again.

any ideas whats going on, i hope he is going to be ok.

Fish lose balance, orientation when they have gall bladder problems, it could have been that he ate something that affected him if he is not having thie problem anymore. I have used mollys to break in saltwater before and i know they tend to hurt themselves and eat things that arent neccesarily good for them, but often times heal up quickly. But i couldnt tell you for sure
