Fish Just Given Birth....how Long Between Each Fish Popping Out And Ho

[orange shark]

Hi,

My platy has just given birth and I was wondering how long it took between each fish popping out and how many come at a time?

Thanks Jack

There's no one answer to this as the batches of fry differ in total numbers. Birthing should almost always be complete within 24 hours.

uve had a guppy give birth then one week later i saw 3 more fry come out
ive also seen a platy give birth to 25 fry within an hour

im only about 95% sure but i think thats what happend

but them things can hide for weeks without seeing them
i had a platy fry hide for a month,
