Live in or near Charlotte, NC? I am overwhelmed with fry, 3 pregnant fish, only 2 have given birth to one bunch. 20+ fry and more to come. Red wag platy, black and gold doubloon fish. Free to whoever wants them. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

So it seems the last time I did a water change two of my pregnant fish had their fry. There are now about 15 or so fry and the fish are still pregnant looking. I am wondering if I should hold off on a large cleaning for a bit? Any advice as to what I should do? I dont want to stress the pregnant...

Ah good to know, I guess I will need to explore separation and giving some away. It is a 29g tank and I have 12 adult 1" fish already in there. Now the 9 or more babies and I am nearing my limit. If they have another few rounds of births I will be in a world of trouble. Sent from my SGH-T999...

How many on average do the fish deliver during one pregnancy? All of them are the same size except the one which is several times larger, I can recall seeing him for about two weeks now. From the others I've now seen they seem to be from both mothers. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Aquarium...

My count is up to 9, there are a ton of hiding places in the tank, the 3D background has a bunch as well as under a few ornaments so they will do fine against the other fish. I have been grinding extra food for them and dropping on opposite side of the tank where I feed the adult fish. I counted...

Here is the largest guy, he is black and gold platy, the 2nd picture is of two very small red with black tail platy they are just to the right of the blue plant hiding against the leaves mid picture. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

So I recently posted here some picture of a couple of Peggy fish I thought I had, well I see some babies in my tank. So far it seems as if the fish are having the fry one every couple days? Does thag sound right? Or many I just dont see them. The parents are keeping the curious other fish away...

I moved him to his own tank, with a tree to hide in and some roots and grass to play around. He seems much happier now. Dug a spot in the rocks as well. It is a 10 gallon tank but he has it to himself so I think he is good to go. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I have all holes covered so he cannot escape, I guess my concern is why he is escaping.

Here is the top opening he escaped from, I have it covered now. Also a full tank view, and the tree he calls home. Water still seems fine and he walks around tank every few days. Looks like he burrowed the rocks behind the tree down to the tank bottom. Not really sure what the issue is. Sent...

Also I should note, I am clueless and know looking into what I should do. It appears 2 fish are prego, so far I have seen 2 types of info: 1st, leave the fry in the main tank with the parents and other fish as long as there are hiding places they will be fine, 2nd separate the mother and allow...

He is in a 29 gallon tank, water quality is fine. I check it often with my liquid API kit, all the fish seem fine as well, I think he is just an explorer. I have his favorite hiding spot back where he likes it and he seems fine now. I have also made sure to close all opening in the top of the...

Wonderful, 2 prego fish thanks for the help on tbis guys :-) Sent from my SGH-T999 using Aquarium Advice mobile app
