Hey I know i have a pregnant platy in my tank and its been about 3 weeks or more since shes swelled up pretty good.
Im not sure exactly how far down the road she is and when to take her out or put her in the hatchery.
I was sucessful last time but i was a bit late and had to remove her after she dropped her first 5 fry (which got eaten).
Shes got a sack of clear jelly right behind her stomach which is getting darker. I am pretty sure I should do something soon because some of the fish realize she is going to deliver.
The father platy seems to be guarding her from another male platy which keeps pestering her and attempting to nip at her.
Fortunately the father platy is noticably larger and scares the pestering platy away most of the time.
I will have a pic or two up soon and i would like to know if u guys have any feedback or tips to boost my chances of sucession.
thanks
