She's the biggest one in my tank, about 2 inches long. Maybe that's why she looks pregnant. I guess it's a risky question to ask her

Got a few questions about MM platy. I hope it's okay to ask on your post. Sorry if I've interrupted.

1) How old is your 2 inch MM platy?

2) Do they live long?

3) Do you have to get several at one time in a tank? e.g. Are they schooling fish?

Well I just got these four MM platies yesterday. From what I have heard it doesn't take but about 6 months for them to be full grown and they live for 2 to 3 years. They are NOT schooling fish but I would recommend getting at least 3. Preferably all female or male if you don't want babies swimming everywhere
