Mickey fish pregnant. Betta fish chasing mickey mouse platy my poor platy is beening bullied by m. I just got a red mickey mouse platy fish today wondering if it is pregnant. It s called a mickey mouse fish because it has 3 black marks on it s back in the shape of mickey s head.
You can add some floating plants for the fry to hide in. One of the first steps in preventing adult fish to eat baby platies is to know how to recognize the signs of pregnancy and prepare the aquarium for the time the female platy will give birth. Female livebearers are pregnant for the majority of their lives.
Keep in mind that i don t know much and i m in college which means i m low on money. Not all fish lay eggs. If there are only female platy s in an aquarium and any of them are fat the odds are almost 100 that they are pregnant.
After copulation it will take a couple of weeks for physical signs of platy fish pregnancy to appear. Make sure you are feeding only as much as the fish will eat in about 2 min and that there is no food falling to the bottom. If you have a male and female adult mickey mouse fish the female is likely pregnant or will be soon.
If it s a platy and it s fat the odds are always almost 100 that it s pregnant. If you want to keep the fry put a lot of plants in the tank for the fry to hide in. The fish s stomache has gotten large.
Your platy is pregnant. If your fish are adults based on age and there is a significant size different then you likely have a male and female. Gravid spots are not indicative of pregnancy and are not visible on all fish.
Otherwise she ll just eat the babies. Step 3 watch the female for a growing belly. If there is a male and female platy in a tank and one is fat the odds are almost 100 that the fish is pregnant.
I think that my mickey mouse fish is pregnant. I have a gold twinbar mickey mouse platy that s 10 months old.
