Both Platys Staying At Bottom Of Tank!

Hello, I have two platys (1 Mickey Mouse and 1 Wag) and they recently started staying at the bottom of the tank. The Mickey hides under a bridge and will rarely move. The wag platy stays at the bottom too but will occasionally move around. I have a 10 gallon tank and they share it with a Dalmatian Molly. The molly has always been chasing the two platys around since I got the tank and put them in there. However, after a 25% water change, I found the two platys staying near the bottom the next day.

My water parameters are the following:
Ammonia: 0
Nitrites: 0
Nitrates: 20
PH: 8

 

Sounds like they're stressed from being chased by the Molly.

 

Since your parameters look good I agree with phishRfriends, they are probably just trying not to be chased

 

jdhef phishRfriends I have had the tank for about 2 months now and the molly chases them whenever I'm watching. Is there any other possible reason why they just suddenly hide and stay near the bottom of the tank?

 

Well your parameters are good, but I guess its possible they have some type of illness

 

jdhef Would a picture help?

 

Couldn't hurt

 

jdhef I uploaded two pictures.

 

I really can't see anything obviously wrong in the photos
