About a month ago, I came home to find extra items in my fish tank, but I had to look a couple of times to make sure I was seeing what I thought I was seeing... baby fish. At first I was assuming it must be from my guppies because they were the only fish I had that were the same kind. So I ran one of them back to the pet store. So I read up on guppies to see how long you have to keep them before you can get rid of them. I was waiting until they were old enough to take to the pet store. Today I was look at the babies and noticed that they are getting markings that are very similar to my Mikey Mouse Platy. (they have a marking that looks like Mickey Mouse on them.) So tonight I was doing some research on Platy babies. Turns out that I was wrong about how fish have babies. There are fish that have live births. And so it's possible to have bought a pregnant fish. And it's possible that my babies are Platys instead of guppies. It turns out that they are very hardy fish. I am hoping to get rid of some babies next week. Let me know if you are interested.
