I only have silk plants so no need for loads of light, but thanks for all your help, looks like i updated my last post after you replied, any idaes on that - crazy!

Woo thanks!

Do platys have any light preferences, i would assume as normal, less light would reduce stress levels?

I see a male in the tank, cus of his anal fin he is deffiantly male, hes chasing a female around, and is shoving other males away from the female, but it looks like he has a dark gravid spot by his anal fin!

Any ideas?

my little male has the same thing, just his insides. if she has the fan shape with the gravid spot you know you have a female.

Confirmed, she is female then!

If the pregnency is successful i will post pictures to this thread, be sure to subscribe to the thread if interested, thanks!
