Green Swordtails

[Gutty]

I saw some green swordtails at the LFS, i've never kept them, and was wondering if they would flow with platys, if so i plan to buy 2 (male and a female )

They'd be fine with Platies. They grow pretty big though, so if you are talking about your 10g, I wouldn't do it. Also, you'd need 2-3 females per male, which would take up more space.

As a side note, are you planning to make the tank slightly brackish with the arrival of the Molly?

Make sure that you have at least 2-3 females per male swordtail, or else the male will overly harass the female .
