I'm quite far away in the south of Devon!

Although a couple of fry from my Female Red Platy x Male Tuxedo/Comet/Mickey Mouse/Sunset Mix are now showing a very distinct Mickey Mouse tail (the four batches previous didn't) so I'm hoping they'll make it. :good:
 
I have 2 MickeyMouse Platies (aswell as a red wagtail who has paired up with the one, and a pure orange one). One of them is orange and the other is whitw with an orange dorsal fin! They are soooooo sweet! :fish:
