My Mickey Mouse Platy finally gave birth on Sept 19, 2010 and here are some of her babies. They are minutes old. Most are about a 1/4" long.I'd guess that she had about 50 or 60 babies. I moved them from the breeder trap to a ten gallon tank hoping that I can raise most to adulthood. Sorry for the poor video taping but these guys are super small.

  • even after the video ended the music kept playing and playing.... O_O

  • @doublefudgecutie That's weird. I did change the music but it's not switching over. Oh well. Just mute it.

  • Very Nice vid. Except for the music...

  • @iabmark1 Yeah I have been meaning to change the music.

  • I though my fish were all done having babies since I have an all female tank and they had all had their babies (which they ate them all) but now, like 3 months after the had their last batch of fry, I found 1 fry all alone and now my fish have seen it and are searching for it. Hope I can find it first!!!

  • @BettaFiend Fill your tank with plants. Plastic or real. Give the baby a place to hide. THat's all it needs.

  • my platy decided that it was a good idea to give birth at 2 in the morning, luckily i had a late night and was still up, and i think many of them were eaten, as i was only able to get 9 from her. but now ive had them almost a day, and have no idea how to care for them, ive put them in a seperate tank and went out this morning to buy a heater, filter and some liquifry food.  any tips would be appreciated :)

  • My platy is giving birth as I type. How long will it take her to give birth?

  • I have 23 fry. 6 huge four day old fry from a Redtailed Black Variatus and 16 small newborns from a sunburst platy.

  • they are so cute. my platy just gave birth.

  • you can tell they are plotting...Alright we strike at dawn

  • So do they develop color after they get bigger or do they stay kinda clear?
