Does anyone know how to tell the difference between guppy fry and platy fry? A lot of fry look so similar.
I found 3 fry in my tank about 4 weeks ago and just assumed they were from my guppies. I pulled them out and put them in my small fry tank but lost 2 overnight. I have noticed the remaining baby is still quite small, bright orange, and seems to be more compact with a shortish tail, whereas guppy fry look like a pair of eyes with a long tail attached.
I will post pics when I get home from work tonight so you can look and tell me if you think it's a platy baby.
Thanks!
