its might be because of your water quality,do a 50% water change,see if that helps.also try and keep that ammonia down.ammonia is fish waste and un-eaten fish food that has been left to rot at the bottom of the tank so always siphon your tank.or your fish might just be sick,treat it straight away if its got signs of illness,if you leave it to late then it will be harder to cure.

Fish can rest anywhere they wish. There is not necessarily something wrong. If you are complying with the basic rules of successful fishkeeping your Molly should be OK. The basic rules are. 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water. ( A Molly is a 3 inch fish) Every tank must have a permanently running cycled filter. Every tank must have at least 50% of its water replaced every week.

Is a molly pregnant when she seems depressed and is always hiding?

If your female Molly has been in the same tank with a male molly then you can almost guarantee that she will be gravid (pregnant). If she is behaving in a touchy and skittish manner doing short dashes from place to place near the bottom of the tank then it is quite possible she is letting her young free (giving birth).


Can a black molly breed with a balloon belly molly?

I'm pretty sure they can. We recently stocked a tank with black mollies and gold balloon mollies; they were all from the same tank in the pet store. A few hours after we put them in our tank, one of the gold balloons had a ton of babies. Five of them made it and are thriving. They seem to be a combination of black and greyish brown and some of them definitely have a balloon shape to them. So we're fairly certain they were a combo of black regular and gold balloons (there were no other kinds of fish in the tank).
