ive notice that my big female platy is fight with my small platy and with my male guppy but my to platys are red mickey mouse platys help :crazy:
 
I'd say that the platy is just trying to make sure everyone knows that she's the Alpha. :fun: Make sure that she isn't hurting/nipping the other fish. If she isn't, I'd say just leave them be, as there isn't really anything that you can do. If she is hurting them, I think you should get her a new home.
 
but do you think that my red mickey mouse platy male and female can breed :unsure:

LOL! That's probably why she's beating up on him, he keeps pestering her! I had a female like that. She was always picking on the other platies, and also always pregnant and giving birth. I finally had to rehome her due to her aggression, but I still have three generations of her young.
 
This is pretty much a rule in the world of common livebearers with few exceptions: if there's a male and a female in the tank, the female's pregnant! :fun:
