thank you!
Forgot to say ... the male platy has all the signs of dropsy. His scales are stuck out, he's a bit swollen up. He's withdrawn, tries to eat but just spits it back out and he's a bit unsteady aswell. It may not be dropsy - could be something else. I jumped to that conclussion when I say his scales and the pineconing people speak of on here.
I've dosed the tank, all other fish seem fine and now it's just a waiting game. The stuff I got was for internal parasites - there was a real lack of meds in p@h today. I've no idea if I've got the right stuff to help him. As you say Soybean, I've done my best, the rest is up to him.
I'll pm you the postcode when I finally decide which to do. There's been quite a bit of good info given to me today and I'm running it all round in my head. I've no real need to rush now that the fry are being moved. I may go back to p@h and have another look at this fluval, take it's measurements, work out if it will fit and where etc then go from there. I'll keep you posted.
Thanks
