Hi All:

Appreciate all the experienced peoples guessing............. I want to put her in a special tank (5G nursery) if I can guess the correct date, or I am just day dreaming lol .......... So pls help me out here............. She is currently in a 45G community tank very heavily planted ..... I want to give a better environment to the fry.

Thanks for your time and interest.

Best Regards

If she doesn't pop in a couple days then it looks a little like your platy has a bacterial infection...
Dropsy is what many call it ,but that is also just a symptom like the 'pine coning' that the platy is very close to showing...
Honestly I can't tell from picture if that is even a female!!!
If the anal fin is pointed and not fan shaped then it is a male and it is very sick...
The 5 g might be a good idea anyways...

Aaaahhh!............ that was a shocker, but thanks for the knowledge.......... I will read up of Dropsy now, to make sure the others are not effected (if possible).
Thank you coralbandit , henningc and Coursiar
