the one and only
i went to collect the blue platys i have been trying to get for ages today, and while i was there i saw some jumbo platys, so i got three girls, when i took the plastice bag out of the paper bag when i got home they where having babies,so i transfered them into a breeding trap, left them alone for an hour then notice about 50 fry altogether, and some blobs with eyes,i soon realised all the fry but 2 were dead or badley deformed, i cant tell you how gutted i am, why is this???
on a happier note, the blue platys are beautiful and currently i have 2 in a net and 1 is giving birth ,up to about 15 so far! ( lots of plants in there)
they didnt look pregnant in the lfs tank lol, so its cheered me up a bit, but i cant understand whats happend,i got 8 females and 4 males and most of the females look pregnant after a close look,1 has started to give birth in the main tank, but i cant see which one so i have added lots of plants for them to hide in,and crossed my fingers
are the death`s due to in-breeding i know it happens, the ball shaped blobs with eye,whats that all about i have never heard or read about that before
