Thomas Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) I have some pregnant female Platys that are due to deliver this Friday as July 9th marks the end of the 28-day gestation period. In the weeks leading up to today, my Platys have had a black gravid spot. But last Thursday, after a water change, when I moved them to a giant 3 gallon breeding box, I noticed that on some of the Platys, the spot turned pink! Some spots remained black and some have both black and pink. What does this mean? I'm afraid I did something that made them abort their fry.

Taco Playz Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 What color are your platy's. Sometimes if they are a lighter color like pink or white they may be just be that the baby's are that color. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the gravid spot color change is nothing to worry about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taco Playz Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Shouldn't be a problem. I had platy's a while ago and they where whitish reddish color and they had a pink gravid spot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
