recently i have been interseted in livebearing fish ever since my sunburst platy all of the sudden started plopping out babies i was so suprised and hopped right on the forum
I now have 7 fry in a 5 gallon fry tank (filter sucker covered by net), 6 are a week old, and 1 is 2 weeks old (im feeding them "first bites")
i have recently changed my tank setup to a platy tank with 2 males and 6 females (along with a small pleco) every day i look at every fish and observe their mood and movement, today i noticed that my high-fin tuxedo platy looked a little fat ( a little more round around the tummy) in most of my platys i dont worry about getting out the Momma-Fry-Seperator thing until i see the black spot behind their belly, but with my tuxedo platy it is black around its belly and its immpossible to see that black spot, she is acting very shy but that is her normal nature
Any Easier ways to tell if they are preggers???
platy breeding tips would be highly apriciated
Thanks everyone,
Tripp
