one of my platys were due to give birth this week so ive been watching here like a hawk, she looked ready last night so i put her in the breeder box (they usually give birth in a seperate tank, but its in full use so a bb will have to do this time)
this afternoon she started dropping, or so i thought, she dropped one perfect little fry. now 5 hours later there is still nothing else just this one. she is usually finished giving birth by now and usually drops around 30-40 fry :(

she looks a little paniccy and im wondering if shes been spooked? do i leave her in the box or let her out? if i let her out the males are gonna hound her straight away and im worried they will stress her more.
 
They can stop and give fry again in about 2 days.
If she looks stressed I would let her out.
At least she can go and hide in the tank.
 
i put some moss in there and she settled so i left her overnight, this morning we got up to over 54 fry, her biggest batch ever :)
 
Wow thats alot.
Congrats.
Bet she happy that it's all done with for another 4 weeks lol.
