How old are my baby platy?

[emma85x]

Hello, any breeders out there help me? I have 4 baby platy that I recently purchased but I was wondering about the age of them? They range from 1cm-2cm in length! I definitely have 1 male that I've noticed isn't a female today so I'm also wondering at what age they start to breed? TIA

Could you possibly show a picture? That would really help though I'm guessing it's about a few months old.

I have spent hrs trying to get pics but there not like my other long term fish who hover at the front when they see my face. Instead they hide haha...I've possibly got 1 or 2 fuzzy ones [emoji51]

Maybe 6 months

Are they of a breeding age by 6 months? I haven't got a pic of the smallest one & the largest is in the close up pic. Really struggled to get better ones

 

[JoshWithGuppies]

Yes they are probably already trying to breed

I'll have to keep an extra close eye on them then...don't want them becoming "fry" breakfast to my blue ram! Thank you for you help
