I'm new here, hello to all.
I got some Black Mollie's from the guy across the street and they had
what I can only call small Leech's, seem to eating the fish. I took the
fish out one by one and knocked the leech's off and put the fish in good
water with a little nitrofura-g(furazolidone, methylene blue, and
potassium dichromate activity). Any thing else I can do?

Okay, so they are probably not a leech, probably a copepod of some type,
I gave a salt dip of 2 teaspoons of salt to a quart of tank water today,
the fish did not seem stress so I gave a nice long dip. I also changed
the water and continue nitrofura-g.
