Default Molly with black dots - pic attached - spotted_fish.jpg (0/1)

I couldn't view your picture, but I wonder if yours is a silver molly?

Once a long time ago my mom got a silver molly that developed black dots.

We were really worried about it and felt pretty stupid when it turned out to
be a dalmatian molly.

Howdy,

I am hoping someone has an answer to this question...

I have a molly who over the last 3 months has developed black dots.
Not just one or two but all over its body. These dots are not moving
and I have other mollys in the tank and none of them have these dots.
Now, the Molly seems just fine, it eats everything i toss into the
tank, it acts just like a molly should. I thought maybe it was
pregnant, but 3 months have gone by and nothing... It's not mold, at
least i don't think it is.. One person at my local fish mart said that
if you feed exotic food to some species of fish they can grow spot...
Now i feed my tank some myosis shrimp and blood worms a couple of
times a week and just the standard flake the rest of the time...

Ive attached a picture, its not a very good one as I can not get it to
stand still long enough to get a good picture...

Any ideas????

Cheers,

Dave___
