I have a dragon fountain (the kind that sits on a table or counter and plugs into the wall) that looks like it might be getting mold. Is there an easy solution to it? Or a hard one, even? lol. If it isn't getting mold, is there a good way to keep it from molding?

Some suggestions I've heard already were to pour either bleach or vinegar into the water...but the person who told me this has never had a fountain so I don't know how much I want to blindly take their advice.

Are you sure it's mold and not limescale? Those resin fountains are especially prone to gathering limescale (a "rougher" surface to cling to) . A -wipe down- with half-strength white vinegar should pull most limescale off without injuring the fountain.
