Opinions on Platy types

[jvis0606]

FIrst, I am assuming that it doesnt make a difference if it is a mickey mouse platy, or a sunset platy, or whatever type of platy, for them to breed... is that correct?

Do you see any differences in behavior btn the different varieties? I have a sunset, a gold, and a mickey mouse gold with black spots.

I have three males, and am planning to buy some females to even things out. Would female swordtails do the job? Can they cross-breed?

They can cross breed, but they'd prefer females of their own species. You might get weak stock, but if they survive then you might get a line of srong hybrids.
