Pregnant Platy Or Just Greedy?

ClaireR · Oct 2, 2008

I’ve had this Platy for two months now, she “seems” to be getting bigger, does anyone think that she’s pregnant or is she just eating too much? There are no males in the tank..

Thanks

Two photos.. unfortunately the close up is a little out of focus.

In short - both lol

Is there a male in with her btw?

Could be either or, as they can store sperm for long periods and seem to get preggars with no male interaction because of the stored sperm.

Stop feeding for a day or two, they have fast metabolisms and if not fed will quickly look thin/. If she stays fat then you know.

Looks like she was just being a bit greedy.. after a few days of reduced food, shes back to normal size!
