Connor Elliott Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 So I have three male platies and they will not leave each other alone always frantically swimming and chasing and nipping and I am getting tired of watching it my tank is Lushly planted and my parameters are in check so I was thinking that would return them for some female balloon mollies because I’m getting tired of watching them always stressed I want to get females because they seem to be the most docile I want to get 4 should I get 4 females or three females and one male?

Levi_Aquatics Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 If you want to get fry go for the three females and one male. If you don't want fry get the females. You still might get fry if the females were in the same tank as the males in the pet store though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Elliott Posted February 4, 2021 Author Share Posted February 4, 2021 Will the females be aggressive? because all of my current males are crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFins Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 they won't be as aggressive as your males. All though the males will be aggressive if you put other females in the tank with them. So all females should work fine. But as @Levi_Aquatics mentioned there is still a chance of fry if you decide to go with all females. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Elliott Posted February 4, 2021 Author Share Posted February 4, 2021 I also might try and stick with platys because Molly’s need bigger tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Elliott Posted February 4, 2021 Author Share Posted February 4, 2021 Do you think if my platys do end up working out I want 4 so could 2 coral red platys and 2 karat tuxedo platys go together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
