Man, so I was thinking about that, and here my med options, table salt, sea salt, epsom salt, colloidal silver, betta fix/tea tree oil, and ick tabs.
So what do I do?!?!?!?!?! The colloidal silver is a antibiotic so I think I can try that, but I have kuhli loaches and a upside down catfish.
Help PLEASE!!!!!!

Move the sick fish to a separate tank or bucket. No need to expose the non-sick fish and shrimp to medication. I would try salt first, since we really dont know what exactly the problem is, and salt is generally helpful with most livebearers.

Ok, all I have is a half gallon tank, but I can't keep it up for more then a week, which is about 2 more days, also the only mollies I am 100% on looks like itsbrain is hemoraging, and it looks kinda wierd while swimming when I did a dip on him yesterday.
Also the fish have been in the tank for awhile so I amd think about taking the snails and some plants out and treating the whole tank and store them in a 1g tank with the snails and shrimp.
I am working with my grandpa to find out the colloidale silver dosing, and should I do epsom salt? I don't have aquarium salt.
