platy acting weird

[Tokis-Phoenix]

Oh, and i'd also like to add you should rehome the loaches if they are CAE's as they will eat the goldfish's eyes out and suck his protective slime layer off when they grow big as they become very, very terotorial with size and age, trust me i know.

ill probably get rid of the sucking loach later
after he finishes cleaning my tank
ill give him back to the lfs

Yes but what are your water stats as i asked before, if you said they're fine surely you must know them, no?

i dont hav ammonia nitrate water testers but i never had any problems before to hav the need to check them.
ill probably buy them this week.

I would also test for nitrite too as its not uncommon for mature tanks to go through mini cycles due to ecosystem problems.
I would also go out and get some anti internal bacterial med like the one by Interpet incase your platys swim bladder disorder is caused by it; do some regular water changes too(20% or 30% once every 3days) in the tank as if your platy has any chance of getting better you'll need top notch water quality stats as swim bladder disorders don't have a huge recovery rate, i'd say 50/50 at best.
Try feeding your fish some blanched peeled peas too.

too late
it died this morning
it was under a rock and had no eyes

i am really pissed cause i've gotten two male platies this week and both hav died

how will i get fry from my females

Your concern in all this shouldn't be about breeding your platys, but more about your tank issues.
I would leave buying anymore fish until we are positive the tank is healthy otherwise they are very likely to die or just contribute to the tanks issues; i advise you do and continue with everything i said in my last post on here.
