Bad Mickey!

Well, he may be racist.

I've got 4 males and 6 females, but the only female my male Mickey Platy is interested in is the one other Mickey. Will he not breed with the sunburst or wags? Should I get rid of him to make the ratio better? The female Mickey obviously has a headache, but he's still annoying the heck out of her for 3 days straight now.

Advice?

Thanks all....

I would get a few more females or take one of the males back. Up to yourself really.

I have that issue lol. They only go for the same colour as well. I would recommend you get more females depending on your stock.

Well, he and "snow white" aren't the same color, so I guess he's not racist. I can't get more fish. I'm maxed out. I might just have to get rid of Mickey. I didn't know I'd need the same colors of Platy's for them to breed??? I thought I read somewhere that a platy was a platy. I'm hoping Mickey is just unusually aggressive. He may have to go.
