Platty Bullying?

[chad07]

Guys,

My female platty has just given birth and now something wierd seems to be happening.........

The other plattys seem to be following her everywhere and she tries to swim away but obviously cant... It looks as though they are trying to nibble her but i cant really tell. Has anyone seen this before??

They never used to this whilst she was pregnant

Please help!!

Sounds like she hasn't finished giving birth.

Yes it's the usual thing......Your Platy has been giving birth to "natural food" and they want more! They are pestering her into maybe producing more fry/food. Things should settle down over the next few days

Thanks, i see where your coming from.....

So she shouldnt get stressed out too much and get ill???

Giving birth every month not good it takes it toll on them, usually they die young.
