I have a 55-gallon tank. In this tank I have one male Platy and three female Platies. I know that means fry. I also have one female Molly. She has given birth twice already. Although I don't know how many times she has given birth without a male, I'm guessing it will happen again, even without a male. I do have give of her fry in a 10-gallon right now. I haven't sexed them yet, but when they are large enough, they will be moved to the 55-gallon. I am not trying to separate fry out anymore, and it will be survival of the fittest. Other inhabitants of the tank include, four Gouramis, two Panda Cories, and the floor is littered with Ghost Shrimp. I don't think the Ghost Shrimp will be eating the fry, but they take up some of the hiding places they fry would normally use. Will I be overrun with fry no matter what, or is there a chance that this fry population can be kept in check?
