Yes, good question about tank size. If there is still room for more stocking you could think about 3 female platies to the one male platy. I think (somebody should verify this for platies..) this is supposed to be a better ratio for distracting the male so he won't bother with other bullying. Of course, this keeps to going with more and more fry!
