[Fishy friend2]

Platies and Swordies are Xiphophorus and Guppies, Mollies, and Endlers are Poecilia so they cannot breed

 

[fishasker]

but they are breeding

 

[Fishy friend2]

how do you know

 

[fishasker]

i see the male guppy behind like nibbling the bottom of the female red mickey mouse platy

 

[Fishy friend2]

that doenst mean that they are breeding, it means he is nipping her

 

[fishasker]
