I have 2 platy fish which I was sold believing they were both male, I woke up yesterday morning to 5 fry swimming around in the tank and both adult fish hiding in separate corners of the tank. I have since got a birthing box for in the tank and placed the fish which I believe to be pregnant in here and left the fry roaming the tank. The platy which is showing no signs of being pregnant has been placed in a separate tank. What shall I do next? The fish still looks pregnant, has a very dark patch near anal fin, has stringy white/clear poops, and is eating LOTS. Also, I have only just taken the male fish into a different tank as they were chasing each other round the birthing box frantically and I didn’t want to stress the pregnant fish. What do I do now?
