can a highfin platy breed witha not highfin platy?

[pondguru]

No worries. They will breed with any type of platy - they're not fussy.

[icarl607]

can these things really have 112 babies at a time?

[pondguru]

Maybe in their lifetime but not in one sitting.

[icarl607]

@pondguru ok good because i only have 20 gal tank and there cant be that many of them in there

[catalynoo]

[pondguru]

No worries. If you upload one, just send it to me.

[qhyman530]

you suck

[lakej9]

does your shop sell them cause i could pop up and maybe buy if i need this ?

[pondguru]

We generally have some high fins in stock but it is always advisable to phone the shop on 01661 844 005 to check prior to travelling as our stock changes daily.

[lakej9]

well that is pets at home for you they just sell you anythinng i only went there because we were heading that otherwise i would of went to my local petshop instead and how does a breeding tank cost

[pondguru]

The type of breeding nets / tanks that fit into an existing aquarium usually range from £4 to £7

[lakej9]

i think my sunset platy gave birth and i have the only one fry in this breeding net i bought and i was wondering what should i feed it and should i put the female in with the fry ??

[pondguru]

Apologies for the late reply, I've just got back from holiday. I always find it better to have a heavily planted tank for livebearers than have a seperate breeding net. Crushed flake should be fine to feed fry.

@lakej9

For foture fry drops, get some bushy live plants like hornwort should give them a place to hide and they'll live the first few weeks off of micro junk that grows on the plants. my fry are all free swimming in 2 weeks (about 4 batches in the last 2 months). I probably lose a bit, but the ones that do grow, grow healthier and faster

[AnnabellaGally]

I used to have the guppies that were orange all over, and had black fins, is there a name for them??

[pondguru]

Sunset?

I'm no expert on the various strains - so that's a guess.

[sajeevan1]

where is this aquarium at im in london eastham

[pondguru]

We are based about 10 miles west of Newcastle in north east England.

[sajeevan1]

thanks do u do home delivery of live stock cause you have a load of variety than here

[pondguru]

We do and the next day delivery charge is £12.95. The fish are sent in an insulated box with a heat pack or two depending on weather. If you send me a message or contact me from the shop website I can e-mail you a full price/stock fish list for you to look through. It was just updated a couple of days ago.

[HaileyJane19]

I wanna get one of these but every time I go to the pet store, the ones they have are always infected with ick -_-

[pondguru]

We sometimes have fin damage/fungal problems with this species but once they are settled they are fine.

Any whitespot on fish is usually brought on by stress or poor water conditions.

[HaileyJane19]

Yeah.. I know how ick works.

[pondguru]

Just pointing out that if you see fish in a central sytstem with an infestation, the fish in the other tanks can't be too good either.

[heartsalots]

i cant seem to find high fin or blue wag platy here were i live for my aquariums :(

[pondguru]

I hear people saying that they can't get this or that species in the tropical fish sections of US shops which I find strange. Its maybe because many of the unusual species are developed in Europe - I don't know.

[Alynras]

They're so lovely. I bought one today from Petsmart that's high fin. It was the only one left too XD.
