chelaine Big Fish Posts: 383 Kudos: 343 Votes: 78 Registered: 23-Jul-2005 | Okay, this might be a dumb question, but is there a difference in a molly, and a platy? I mean... obviously something because they have are in a different phylum. But any like MAJOR differences? noticeable ones? *Chelle* I love the fishes cuz they're SOOO delicious... |
