	Pregnancy signs...
bodangit Hobbyist Posts: 97 Kudos: 37 Votes: 10 Registered: 19-Jan-2006	I am cycling with a platy right now, I had 3, but 2 died because I overstocked it for cycling. I have just one now, and she seems to be developing a dark spot where they normally bulge out for babies. Could this be a sign that she's getting pregnant? I read somewhere that they can store sperm for up to six broods. Is she pregnant? ________________________________________________ I like Led Zeppelin.

The spot will not darken as much as in guppies, but in some colors of platy is very noticeable. Female livebearers can store sperm for up to about 1 year. Thats about 8-12 litters of fry.
