Platy Fry and a conjoined twin!

Check it out...

My Pink & White Mickey Mouse Platy had fry today. I have 22 (or so) little ones. yay!

HOWEVER... Amazingly, one of the fry is a conjoined fish. They are joined at the belly it seems. From what I can tell it has two tails and had two heads. I will cull the fish tomorrow as I cant remove it without netting other little guys. So, for now, they live.

Weird.

Re: Platy Fry and a conjoined twin!

I am trying to get a picture, but between the small fry and the white fry net breeder, it comes out blury and blob like. Any suggestions?

Re: Platy Fry and a conjoined twin!

Its gone. I took every fry out of the net breeder and its just gone. Could they have eaten it?

Re: Platy Fry and a conjoined twin!

the got him! I'm not sure where he went.. there have been instances of fry getting out of those breeder net boxes and he may have done that and if so, could be hiding in the tank. if he died, then they may have ate him, but i couldn't be sure of that.
