Thank you all so much.

Please? Doesn't anyone know a way that will keep the fry alive? I really don't want these babies to die.

Anyone know a good way to treat ich, but keep platy fry alive? I did not follow my normal quarenteen procedures, and guess what, that's the one time I got a sick fish. (Alright, I've purchased three sick fish in 3 and a half years, but the other two, I caught because of quarenteen.) The fish...

Anyone have any Yellow Wag Platies that they want to sell? Or does anyone know of a place where I can buy them?

Why not use it for something like a Mud Skipper? Or an Axoltl... they are awesome.

M&P I think. I think it was Denny's Petworld in Kirkland, WA. I saw them about 3 or 4 months ago and assumed there would be more (healthier ones) later, but there hasn't been.

No, they aren't hifins. They are identical to the standard red or orange wags... except they are a bright yellow (NOT gold). The same shade of yellow that is seen in the Yellow Twinbars. I have seen them online once or twice (not for sale), I have seen them in the book "Keeping and Breeding...

Does anyone have Yellow Wag Platies? Anyone selling them? Anyone know where to get them? I am in Washington state...

Oh my, a blue one! Where on earth did you find this? Petco. I have seen them at most of the LFS around here. Where are you? If you are close to me, I'll give you one (or more) of my blue mickey juvies. If you want to pay for shipping I can send some to you... but they are pretty common. I...

Yeah, look at http://assighdesigns.com/mysteryfish/index.html on the bottom picture the Marigold and the Calico RedTail are both pregnant.

Platies are fantastic! They are hardy, peaceful, pretty and highly reproductive. I don't see anything wrong with feeding unwanted fry to other fish. I rarely take fry out of the community tank until they are over a month old (and then only if they have markings etc. that I want). I figure that...

In my LFS the other day were some fish that I liked and so I bought them. They were labeled as "Gold Dust Molly" but I think that they are Yellow Tuxedo Platies. They are the same size as adult platies. They are very happy in the platy tank. The male "Mystery Fish" tries to court my female...

Simply put: Platies.

I was wondering the other day about these test kits. I see ones for salt water and for fresh water... my tank is brackish, which should I use? Will it make a difference in any of the readings?

Is there a list/website that anyone knows of that lists and ideally shows a picture of all the different color variations for platies?

Betta is dead this morning.

Thank you for all your suggestions. I will try them! I can put him in my 10 gal tank it has a heater, filter, plants, etc. It is fully set up and is currently being used as a nursery for baby platies. But frankly I don't care nearly as much about the fry as I do about the betta. I will put the...

Over the holiday I had someone taking care of my fish. I have a 30 gal with 1 betta and a bunch of platies, a 10 gal nursery/hospital/quarenteen tank, and a little 5(?) gal tank that had a betta in it. Apparently some time during the holiday the smaller betta tank was broken. The betta...
