Hi I had recently introduced 3 molly into a fully cycled tank but today i noticed something red comming out of my black molly like he was pooping but i dont think its poop could it be some sort of parasite?? if it is what can i do about it??

Go to your local fish store and get some medication. Do a 20% water change, as well as syphon the gravel to give it a clean...

why would you recommend meds when you dont have a clue what it is? help find out what it is first

It definitely sounds like an internal parasite. Although it's rare, I'd suggest looking at this thread about Callamus worms to see if that's what you have. My experience with Camallanus worms

EDIT: Aw Shawnie, you ninja'd me!

well sadly the do have those c worm things but i found one of the meds thats recommended for this type of worm the jungle anti-parasitic stuff so hopefully i caught it early enough to be able to treat it
