Weird Platy Behavior

[PrairieSunflower]

I have 1 juvenile platy, 4 adult guppies and 6 juvenile guppies (all females...also a bunch of neon tetras).

Anyhow... my platy is doing something bizarre that I haven't seen before... she is coming up to my guppies, coming alongside, turning and sort of poking/brushing them with her tail....

Why?

That's 'flirting'.

If there were male platies in the tank she probably wouldn't do it. I wouldn't worry anyway

Phew! Good! I was worrying that maybe it was some sort of weird flashing. She does seem to do it to one guppy more than the others.
