Male Swordtail

[Nick Bramley]

i have a tank with a few Mollies, 3 female 1 male, when i get my bigger tank though i would like to put a male Swordtail in it with these fish that will also include a few glassfish, platies.

will the male swordtail be ok without females or will he get agressive?

Thank you

hi,
i have a single male sword in with platys, both m + f, and other fish and hes fine,
as long as you keep at least 2-3 females per male of the platy and molly i cant see a prob, the sword can mate with female platys. make sure theres hiding places and you will be fine

You may also get a few female swords the swords and platies rarely school together but will breed
