Answer
Rosy Barbs are egg layers so unless you are sure you have a pair and a setup that allows them to spawn its not likely your going to get any fry from them.  Your Mollie has Popeye, its actually a parasite that is embedded behind the eye, sometimes medications work if you start the treatment early however more often then not the fish doesn't recover, its a good idea to add aquarium salt to the tank in the amount of 1 tablespoon per gallon of water and raise the tank temperature to about 82F, this will kill off the parasite and help bolster your Millies immune system.
