Be prepared for more soon (4-6 weeks I think). Plattys can give birth several times without a male present.

One of my platty had 30 plus last time & the other one had 66. After losing some to the filter I have 112 in total.

More due in 1-2 weeks and again 2 weeks after that. Could end up with over 200.

None of my mates are into the same sports/pastimes/hobbies as me so 'they ain't got nowhere to go' unless lfs will take them all. He will take some but not sure just how many is some.

PS. NEVER even seen ONE born in all that lot.

Not really I mean it's all part of the cycle of life, I was more upset with myself for doing tons of reasceach on fish AFTER i bought them and not realizing that she was pregnat, I mean I was thinking she might be but in the furture I will know about the fish i get BEFORE i buy them, also like I said I'm sure there are more to come.
