How long till Platy is full grown?
Just out of curiosity really....
I have a tank with 3 mollies and originally 2 platies. The male platy died after not too long but before he did we got a couple babies. One survived and we got another male, which also died but not before spawning 2 sets of fry. So i have 3 young females that have made it - don't know why we have problems keeping the males, but anyways.... I am wondering how long it takes for them to become full grown? Obviously, all 3 "children" fish are at different stages - the oldest is probably 3-4 months old, the 2nd a month or two younger and the 3rd a month or 2 younger than that. All of them we didn't see her give birth like we have with the mollies so it's all approx. - we just discovered them one day. When I compare the oldest to her mother, she's still maybe half her size, probably less. Does it really take that long for them to grow?
Thanks,
Heidi
