Poor girls! I've counted 12 newborns in the seperate tank today and noticed 2 in main tank. Will see how many make it to 3 weeks and then start asking around to see who wants some. At what age should it become clear what sex they are?

Just a random question but do platys breed all year round or just this time of year?

Here's a pic

Would help if I uploaded the pic!

My baby tetra!

I'm guessing my biggest tetra is the female, and the more docile lighter smaller us male?! Such a cute baby!

Some of the leaves are going brown do I need to remove them?

Little shot if some if the new squirts

I've moved them now anyways. I saw the older ones get a newborn in their mouth, it was too big but they kept trying. Luckily that fry managed to swim away eventually but didn't want to cause more stress on them. Im going to leave any further batches to nature or I'm going to have loads! Is it...

I think she's stopped, no appearances for last hour.

Got the new tank set up with water from main tank, let her and the older fry into it abd within an hour I noticed something swimming. I've counted about ten so far, she's still panting and looking large so imagine tgeres more in there. Had to get the older fry out and back into breeder box as...

She's having them right now!

No fry! I'm going to get a smaller tank to put the babies in untill their bigger, might even put mum in their she may be more relaxed. My plan is to get it set up today with some water out of main tank to give cycling a start.

Thank you x

Family!
