Guppies bothering my Platy....

[ashtin49]

I have 2 fancy tailed guppies that are TOTALLY driving one of my Orange Platies nuts! I am 95% sure both my Platies are male as I compared them to the picture and post pinned by William. I'm pretty sure the guppies are also male. Two of the guppies will chase and kind of nip near one of the orange platies tummy, CONSTANTLY!!!! I called several fish stores that said they have never heard of this unless the platy is dying or preg. I don't think either are the case. Any suggestions? I will post on chit chat as well.

Thanks!

How is the water?

I just had the water tested last week and all was fine. Why do you ask about the water? Can the water readings changed the behavior of fish?

Thanks!

Bad water can cause stress and sometimes, the fish will take it out on a weaker fish or another species

Hmmm your case it kinda weird
I will do some research.....
