Platy fry

[ccross]

My platy fry are about 1/2 in long now. Would they be safe in my tank with neons, cherry barbs, guppies, ghost shrimp and khuli loaches? There are only 2 fry.

That should be fine IMO.

Hello c...

I understand Barbs can be "fin nippers", especially around male Fancy Guppies. But, I suppose if the Barbs haven't bothered the Guppies your Platy fry should be fine.

Cherry barbs are not fin nippers like tiger barbs are. They are much more peaceful tankmates.

I'm gonna move my 2 platy fry over tonight after I do my PWC. I'm ready to break down this 5 gallon fry tank.
