this can never happen w/ 2 fish to a begginer!~!!!!!!!

omg i got 3 blue mickey mouse palties from petco not knowing that there female! well wat happend was they were sooo skinny not pregnant at all and now all 3 of them are bloted!i know what it is i think it is possible...? the neon swordtail is the daddy most likley!!!!
hmmm tell me if this can be trueee!

thanks[/img]

 

they are pregnant from the other tank that you bought them from. livebearers have been known to store enough sperm for a few pregnancies without a male present.

 

ohhh...(tear) well i hope soo

 

If they were in a mixed tank then they were most likely pregnant when you bought them but Platy's and Swordtails can interbreed.

 

Hmmmmm yeah i wonde...three female platies and one neon swordtails

 

you actually buy fish from a chain store like petco not to mention there the worst chain fish store around.

 

walmart is pretty evil too

 

true but i see worse kept fish in petco at least mine
