Are they in that tank in your avatar? That looks like a small tank, which might very well be the problem. In many cases, a larger tank with lots of hardscape will solve aggression issues. You may have to take the fish back if you just purchased it or you might want to consider donating it to another fishkeeper. Sometimes, though, things work themselves out once a pecking order is formed.
What size is this tank?

Try taking the platys out rearranging and giving the dwarf sometime to take over the space...
It's a 10 gallon and I'm thinking about rehoming the platys
I'll take me
Really?
Ya I'm thinking about if no one wants to buy my 28 gallon tank in Anaheim California then ill just keep it and stock it fat with Molly's and what not
I'm mobile so I can't see your avitar pic well but maybe some taller plants for lots of coverage could help. But honestly I put 5 platys in my 55 with my juvenile angels and they picked at the tops of the angels dorsal fins so I returned them. It's a shame too because they were a beautiful addition to the tank...
