My Female Platy Might Be Pregnant

[brimon92]

Hi, My name is Monica and I have 2 male and 2 female platys. Last night I noticed that one of the female platys look kinda a bloated and not to social. My mother thinks that shes pregnant, and to some investigation she is. My other female was being harassed by the male and I think she got impregnate last night. How long should I wait to see if she's pregnant.

Also, I was reading about breeder boxes, but I am a little iffy on those. What works best putting the females in a separate tank (which i do have-empty) or a breeder box. If the breeder box is more efficient, when should i put the female in?


Thanks
