I'm kind of running into that now... if I understand correctly, pretty much all the platy varieties "can" cross, & swordtail's & platy's "can" cross. & Molly's or Guppy's can't cross... with platy's or swordtails... so just because some of those fish "can" cross, is that likely??? I currently have 3 varieties of Platy in one 55 gallon tank, & as long as I offer both male & female of a variety, that looks significantly different, they seem to kind of hang in their group, is that normal, or am I likely to get all kinds of strange crosses going on???
also does having more than one species breeding, effect breeding of other livebearers much??? in other words, does one species dominate in a tank, & the others breed less??? is there a problem putting Molies into a tank with several varieties of platy, or adding a few Guppy's, Limia, or some Neoheterandria, to a tank with other live bearers???
