My Platties

[tropical fishies]

ive recently bought 1 male sunset platy and 3 females

im not trying to breed them, but i just want to know the signs just in case...

firstly, how do i determine a male from a female

secondly, one fish keeps chasing a certian individual fish around and then slowing down when getting near that fish, is this a sign or summin?

and any other helpful info would be appriciated
