I would say she's nearly ready. Good idea with the blanket, was going to suggest that!!..Personally i just knock off all lights and airstones but your doing that already..Imo there's not much more you can do, mother nature will take over now.. I know it's hard, but try and leave the tank alone, they usually give birth during the night when it's quiet and dark in the room..That's awesome news I've had her for about a year now and this is the first patch im trying to save. I have her in the breeder box right now but she just seems really stressed I put a blanket over the top to try to help clam her but idk how well its working... how long can she stay in that breeder box, is there anything to help calm down her down or move things along?
Check out my pictures of my fry tank, it's picture no.6, it's my platy actually giving birth!!!..Also you'll see the way i have the fry tank set-up, i know it's not pretty(at the moment!!), but i'm waiting till the fry are big enough to move to my 55g and then i'm going to change the set-up. Replace the gravel with sand..Note the tights on my filter..I have taken out the smaller filter since, only had it there while i cycled my new one...
