ok...my platy just gave birth again..i dont have the numbers..coz they r everywhere... its a long 27 days for her (her usual is just 21 days). probably, i spoocked her on the 20th day when i moved her to isolation...thus, delaying her (i thought shes goin to abort).

oh well, we'll see if there will be survivor/s in the community tank....at least now..i got tons of moss and floating wisteria. wish me luck.

Well....... Congratulations & Goodluck with your new fry.
Floating Plants will help the fry to survive more & have a better place to hide.

Congratulations

I'm not the one to tell you to go and sit down and count the number of fry you now have:%)Been there, tried that, it's not gonna work As long as they have plenty of plants to hide in, and you are terribly worried about the total survival you will have plenty Make sure to feed them and love them, because before you know it they will be having babies for you, and then their babies will be having babies:%)it gets to be an endless cycle

I know i've said it a zillion times but one more time, just take your normal food that you feed the adults and grind it to a dusty powder, and use that to feed them...keep up with the water changes, though doing them with fry is always interesting...and Best of luck
