I estimated that my fry turned about a month old on the 10th of this month and they are only about a half inch long.
They definitely have grown from when I first caught them but not by much.
They are also not showing any specific colors yet. They kind of look like my danio's the most (having a grayish-green color to them) and have the slim body.
Is this normal?

what type of livebearers? and mine are just now starting to show colors (guppies) and they are a range of 1 month to 3 months...the older ones are coloring up where as the youngers are not yet....a varied diet helps ALLOT ..with prestine water and partial changes a few times a week.....usually 2 months or so they should start showing some partial colors (still speaking of guppies )

Well in the tank I have mickey mouse platies, dalmation mollies, and danio's (but they aren't livebearers)

I thought platies were livebearers. I know for sure danios are egg layers. My guppy fry are about 1 month and 1 is starting to show some color and they are noticeably much bigger. I kept them in the main tank. It also looks like all females as they are starting to show gravid spots.

well those arent totally bright like the fancy guppies so it might take longer...
I think she was meaning danios in parenthesis were not live bearers not all of them ....

Mystic54

Oh I just mean't that the danio's aren't livebearers. Platies and mollies are both livebearers.

Yup, you got it.

Sorry about that!

Mystic54

LOL, its no problem.

I will try to get some pictures of them and maybe you guys can help me identify what type of fish they are.
