I have always had Platys. I have one orange one and the rest are blue. They are my favorite with so much personality. Very peaceful, but breed like crazy if you have a male in with females. 9 times out of 10, if one of the females gives birth, the fry gets eaten unfortunately. We have had a few survive for a few weeks but that was it. Im not sure, ive never kept two males together by themselves so I dunno how that works. But i know when females are around, two males get agressive towards one another and one of my males killed the other one. So hes the only male out of 6 females. But he doesnt mind. Haha.
I would get them. They are nice
