My New Fishes

CTlovesKS · May 17, 2009

I brought plattys today. They are brilliant colours and seems to have setted in fine... I made sure they are all females as Im no wanting them to breed. But ido have some Questions for you...

1. I think one is preg, whats the chances of the babies living with 2 danios,5 other plattys 2 pleco and 2 catfish?
2. One of the females (One i think is preg) is just staying at tope of tank. Is this coz of preg or could be tank shock ?

can you get a photo of her? she may be sick, tho platys do enjoy all levels, is she breathing fast or anything?
they do tend to try to find a quiet spot when in labour,but then get quite active
if you keave her in the tank to have her babies, nature will ensure you dont get over run with fry
you may want to have a read of the livebearers section.. go to the front page and look down the list, maybe about 10 down

congrats on the new additions
