Setting up fry dropping tank!!

[Voorhee]

Ok i have 2 female very pregnant Platys..

and the male that impregnated them is just amazingly colorfull.. im hoping to save some fry..

anyhow the female are staying away from other fish now picking at rocks and swimming on there own.. was wondering a couple of things..

how long till they drop?

should i pull them from my tank and set up my 5.5 gal tank i have?

and advice would be great..

Also can i use water from main tank to fill my small tank? so the fish won't die?

Thanks all!!
