The aquarium is full of plants so I don't think there can be a problem with ammonia or anything else. Also...

About 4 months ago my father bought 4 platy fish for our tank (along with a Plec, a few neon tetra and a betta) (I know it's not recommended to keep a betta with platys because or their tails but they get on fine).

    Fish Breathing Heavily

    Hello, new to this forum.   I have a 19l tank which I've had for about 5 months.
