Platys breeding with Swordtails | |
Hello Fishy Banned Posts: 32 Kudos: 27 Votes: 5 Registered: 13-Jul-2005 | Im thinking about getting platys to put in with my swordtails, but I read somewhere that the two interbreed. If I wanted to breed the swordtails, but didnt have platys, it wouldnt be a problem. If I also had platys, and a female platy or swordtail got pregnant, how would i know if the fry were pure platy, swordtail, or mixed? Last edited by Hello Fishy at 15-Jul-2005 09:39 |
