Feeding time of my Catemaco platies

[emeraldking]

Every fish got to eat, huh...
Overhere some of my Catemaco platies feeding themselves on an adhesive spirulina tablet. The Catemaco platy is a wild platy (Xiphophorus milleri) and different from the regular maculatus or variatus platy. They're also more rounder of shape.
These platies are speckled bronze bodied. Early males have got a black gonopodium, regular and late males have a bronze gonopodium.

Actually, they´re not short bodied. But it´s because of the more rounder shape that it may look like it.

Very nice platies and you sound like you know your fish. You might consider becoming the forums Platy expert and answer people's questions that will arise about these fish. The next time I read a thread where someone is asking about platies, I will refer them to you.

Thanks for the thought. But I'm into all livebearers to be honest. Not just specifically platies... But I do appreciate your thought... ?
