[cheezeloverr]

Awesome. I'll try to go there sometime this week or next week.

 

[Somethingclever]

Awesome good luck, take pics after the fry drop.

 

[cheezeloverr]

Yeppers. Unfortunately in my tank, my one male saw to it that the other two males didnt make it :-( I guess hes greedy with his female companions

Mine were biting each others junk. I had to put a stop to it. Sucks cuz i got rid of my yellow lyretail sail fin molly

 

[cheezeloverr]

That sucks. I hope my fishes aren't too mean to eachother after I put some more females in.

Male platys and Mollys can be very territorial. Certainly something to watch if there is more than one male.

 

[cheezeloverr]

I know. My males fought until I separated my female from them.

 

[cheezeloverr]

Going to petsmart now

 

[Somethingclever]

Good luck !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay. I got 6 live plants, 3 female platies, 2 neon tetras, another ornament, and a 3 way breeder. I know I didn't get 5 females but remember, I'm going to raise fry. I need space for them later on.

 

[cheezeloverr]

I meant 8 live plants.

 

[Somethingclever]

You should be fine with the amount of females you got, lemme know how it turns out. Oh take pics of what it looks like after if you can

 

[cheezeloverr]

Here are some pics. Arent they cute?

 

[cheezeloverr]

Okay... I have a question. Can male Platys have gravid spots? Or is it a disease? You can barely see it in the picture but it's there.

 

[Somethingclever]

Don't know about that but i really like your tank setup. How big is your tank? Plus i loooooove mickey mouse platys.

 

[cheezeloverr]

Thanks! Its only ten gallons. Sometime next year probably, I'm planning on getting a 30 or 50 gallon tank with a stand and everything. Plus more fish.

 

[Somethingclever]

Im hopin to get a 100 gallon... if my fiance will allow it lol.
