Okay. Some of you guys really helped me out back in March when my "male" platy had babies. I'm going to proudly admit I am 110% novice in the fish department but I think over the past few months I've been holding my own pretty well. Anyways, here's my problem. I started out with three sunset...

So i looked over the history of this board and found a few posts about moving fry, but I am still confused. I have about 7 dwarf platy fry and they are still pretty small. they are about 3-4 weeks old now. I have them in a separate tank apart from the other tank which already has 2 dwarf adult...

well she is still pregnant but how much salt would i use? is it ok to use salt with other platies in the tank? here's the best picture i could get of the fry in the tank i moved them into. she is still really huge and still hasn't had anymore... poor girl!!!

I guess the power of thought is really strong!!! I woke up this morning and found 11 baby fry in the tank. She's still really huge but she hasn't had anymore yet... most of them are hiding in the anachris (sp?) and i moved them into a small tank away from the platies. i'll post some pics soon.

Wow, he isn't even going to give her a chance to get out the babies she has! Thank you so much for the information! (and everyone else too!!!)

She still hasn't had them yet. Any ideas on when I can expect them?? Are there signs of labor? She's been swimming around and eating. But the male fish keeps sticking really close to her stomach. Any ideas on what that is about? She seems to be getting angry sometimes when he does that. I'm...

She is a sunset platy. Still no babies though!! I'm hoping they will come soon.

I have one african dwarf frog in with her. Should I move him out? I have a separate fish tank.. She hasn't delivered yet! I'm getting anxious! I feel like I've been waiting for a while. I just have a one more question. How do I get the fry out? I have a net to get the fish out of the tank when...

Okay so, I know you guys get a lot of these "Help my fish is pregnant!!" but I'm completely clueless when it comes to fish. I just moved out of N.C. to M.N. and couldn't take along my beloved furry friends from back home so I decided to get some fish. Well, I purchased three platy's from...
