Baby Fry - Update

The Platy Fry that was born on 19th December 2010 have been growing up in a hatchery tank attached to the main tank and been quite happy there but after a month being in there have decided to put them in another tank, that way they have more freedom to move about.

One is the fry is massive it is nearly double/triple the size of the smallest ones. two of the fry are still extremely small and all the others vary in size.

I have a small medical tank and have converted it to the home for the frogs as has a heater and very basic filter. As the frogs don't poo as much and contaminate things the filter is adequate. So taking that into account I decided that the fry could live there while they are growing.

All seven that I had saved have survived and I been looking after them 

The largest one looks like a male as can see a dangler!, it no longer seems to have a fan tail but that does not mean much as could be tucked away, as like my orange platy did.

Here is a video of them in the slightly bigger tank, although the quality is not brilliant!
