Platy Fry

[erin3270]

About an hour ago, my platy dropped 3 fry. I have not seen them drop anymore. I can tell it still has babies in her, but will she drop more? When? Is it possible to tell? Also, should I keep the tank light on? She is in a breeder box. Thanks so much for the help in advance.

I would switch off the light for her. The trap is stressful enough without that giant outside the tank shining a bright light on her. She should resume fairly quickly. A platy drop is usually over in just a few hours.

The light is off now. Lets hope for the best!

Aww, I'm sure it will work out!
It's better than the first drop I got!
