I have a 29 gal tank. I have three males balloon mollies and seven females. Today I noticed one was floating up side down. At first I thought she was dead. Then I noticed she was still breathing. All of sudden she turned right side up and started swimming regularly like nothing was wrong. All the others seem to be ok. Is there something wrong with her. Is this normal? Thank u.

Most likely swim bladder problems. Balloon mollies are bred for their deformity and often have swim bladder issues as a result...

I'm totally agree with you.You'r 100% good here that most likely swimming bladder problems. Increase mollies are meticulously for their problems and often have swimming bladder issues as a result...
