Do platies have to live in warm water, or can they do just fine in cold-water tanks?
@undersurfacechannel
@undersurfacechannel 3 года назад
@Cruxity they can accept pretty large variety and definitely can also be in cooler water. In cooler water they will not thrive as much, they will grow and breed a little slower, but on the other hand they will have longer life-span :) But definitely depends on what you mean by "cold-water" :) by cooler water I mean around 22-23 °C (71-73)....

Ive bought a female balloon Platy one week ago , I was hoping she wasn’t pregnant ( but I knew it was nearly sure she was as she was placed with males too in the fish store tank ) , anyway today she has given birth . Considering I have no male liveberers in my tank , how long is gonna last sperm storage ? She will give birth again next month right , even if she’s without male . I just wish she was a virgin , lol, the baby fry stuff is something I am not too much into it anymore . Anyway I’ll keep a daughter ( that will be separated immediately from the brothers as soon as the anal fin start developing in gonopodium ) , and I’ll take the rest of the brood to the fish store .
@undersurfacechannel
@undersurfacechannel 5 лет назад
Well, yea she can store sperm for several drops unfortunately... If you'll leave fry there with her, she may eat some of them, if you don't really want them, this is a great first step as only several of them will survive, and them eaten will serve as great diet supplement for her :D (always better than getting rid of them some other way)... I usually grow up fry till like 2 months, and the lower quality fry I always sell as feeders :) that may be the way as well if you want to get rid of them later... :)
@salvolondon
@salvolondon 5 лет назад
Pat's Fish Tanks she gave birth in the main tank so I found only 6 of them , and I saved them putting them in a big tank all for them . I will wouldn’t toss them ,I feel sorry for them , I will probably give them back to my fishstore where they grow the baby fry that born in their shop in a big tank all for them . I wanna keep a daughter though so will have to keep them till I am sure at least one is female . What age do the gonopodium start developing in male fry ?
@undersurfacechannel
@undersurfacechannel 5 лет назад
Salvo Smith Or just grow them up a bit, around 6 weeks shoul be enough so other fish won’t be able to eat the and put them back into main tank 😊 from what I’ve seen, there is plenty of room for 6 more fish 😊👌🏻 that is also an option 😊

Roselia Haha well, I am sure she does at some point maybe or rather most likely she already did, its just with livebeareres males are tying to breed all the time and the process literally takes few seconds 😅 Another thing is that platy can breed with swordtail so you most likely will have some hybrid fry soon 😊👌🏻

@undersurfacechannel
@undersurfacechannel 5 лет назад
Aquaholics Aquatics Hey mate... no worries. Step 1 - add 1 table spoon of aquarium salt per 10 liters of water. Step 2 - add heater and heat your water up slowly to 30-32 degrees celsius. Step 3 - add airstone to provide extra oxygen as with increasing temperature the oxygen is decreasing. Ich cannot reproduce in temperatures over 28 degrees. In combination with salt in a week time you have no more problem 😊👌🏻

@@undersurfacechannel so update I'm done to 1 make mickey mouse, 1 female guppy( may be pregnant) and about a dozen fry I saved from the tank. A couple guppy fry and a couple platy fry. One fry has to spots of If I from the original tank but the rest look fine. Raised the temp, added salt not sure what I did wrong but now I've had to start over. Cycled a 20 gal display tank for the guppy and platy to be permanently. The fry tank is also cycled. I cleaned the ich tank out completely and started over. High ammonia 5ppm, 1ppm nitrite and roughly 3ppm. I just started it with old shrimp. Been in the tank about 2 days so I removed it to let the ammonia do its cycling. I will probably make it my Quarantine tank since the ich-x stained the silicone in my tank. The two survivors are in a tank. They spend a lot of time swimming at the top of the tank or the bubbles if I turn them on. I don't understand😞 temp is 78 and the tank water is fresh. They do eat when I feed them. Before they were sick they were swimming thru the whole tank and not at the top.

@lakemiya6 sometimes it happens, males are trying to breed all the time, but usually they are attracted to majority or all females. In case it would get too far and you'd seen any damage on the female, try removing her to holding tank for few days and see whether he'll try breeding with other females, and if yea, return her back and maybe it'll fix the issue :)

Hello! I have a question :) I recently bought 3 platy fish (I have never had platies before and am not intending to breed. I told the girl at the pet store to get me all females, but she didnt.) I have one male red wag platy. I don't know my other two platies genders but they are a sunburst wag platy and a gold twinbar platy. I often see my red male chasing my gold twinbar platy around the tank. Does this mean my gold twinbar is a female and my red male is trying to mate with her? Also my gold twinbar is a little smaller than both my wag tail platies but I thought females were larger than males? Thank you so much :)
@undersurfacechannel
@undersurfacechannel 5 лет назад
stream CMB Hi, well to determine the gender for sure just look at the shape of their anal fin (1:10min in this video), those that have them shaped as triangle are females, and those that have gonopodiums are males 😊 that is definitely the best way to determine a gender as if you have them from a Pet store, they may be different age, and therefore size comparison may not be completely accurate 😊 But yes, in general females are larger...
@undersurfacechannel
@undersurfacechannel 5 лет назад
stream CMB and back to the breeding part, well if you have males and females together they will breed and there is no way around it 😅 females can also store the sperm in their bodies for couple of moths and even for several separate drops without being hit again 😊 so even buying only females from the fish store, there is a high chance that they have been hit in the fish store and in couple of weeks you’ll have some fry 😊 but to be honest I would not worry about them having fry at all... If you don’t have super heavily planted aquarium, the parents will hunt the babies down and eat them, sometimes in aquariums with tons of swimming space even all of them... So they will breed, no way around it, but if you don’t want to keep fry, it will only provide healthy snack for parents 😂 hope I’ve answered your question and it helped a bit 😊

@@streamcmb8512 yea well, thats nature :D again, depends on what you want, if you want to keep some and have several babies, buy breeding box instead, and if there will be a drop, just collect the babies with net, place them in the breeding box and feed them for a month... than you can just release them back, and they will be big enough so the parents won't be able to eat them :) its a great feeling growing up your own fish, and if you would not want so many fish, you can always just give them to somebody else, or back to you fish store :)

How to know if my platy is sick?
@undersurfacechannel
@undersurfacechannel 4 года назад
There are many possible signs... First of all activity, it may start swimming slower, lying on the ground etc. and that is usually connected to clamped fins. It will have fins clamped to the body and you will see that something is wrong. Long white sticky poop is usually sing of internal parasites, and white spots is on the fins and body is Ich. Majority of these problems you can fix with medicated flakes, or aquarium salt :) Hope it helps...

Pat's Fish Tanks I don’t use a filter and other things just use some huge rocks,two fake plants and some tiny rocks also I noticed my male now is trying escape it basically gets close to the walls and starts going up and down. my aquarium is quite small it’s not a normal aquarium. My dad and his friends made it,it’s made of two things steel and glass.it is then stuck with silicon. Now I was gonna by another stock and some more food and a filter more rocks and fake plants and upgrade the aquarium but because I was unlucky I got everything right before the first case happened in my place and then the cases went 234 or something and then pretty much a lot of shops closed and the aquarium was one of them. Also I noticed that the female's body was fresh not even eaten everything was on. But the fries well they looked like they were eaten. Any recommendations of different fishes which can cross or get along with my platy?
