Platy Photos

Please use this topic to post your Platy photos. I'll leave it stickied so it appears at the top of the posts.

Thanks,
Mike

While your compliments on the photos are really appreciated, text-only posts will be removed after a while to keep the gallery pictures-only. If there is a discussion you do not want to loose, please start it again in a separate thread.

My blue-eyed beauty. I think she's a sunset mickey mouse platy. She has amazing pale blue eyes. This is the first time I get to render her eye color in the shot.

And also a shot of her and my other female platy with their male molly tankmate.

Yeah, that dalmatian's pretty special, hey. But I love the blue mickey mouse one too. And the other one (no idea what you'd call that pattern) is also pretty special, I find. I havent' really seen ones with that colour pattern in my area.

Am dying to get a blue male.

Oh is that what you call it? 'red wag'? I'll try to remember that. Yes, that's the one I meant. I've not seen these in real life in our neighboring LFS.

Slow moving platys?

My sunset wag girl and blue mickey mouse boy. I've had the wag for 3 weeks and the mickey mouse for 2. Just a few days ago I put them both in the same tank. They don't seem to move a whole lot, compared to my guppies. Are platys less active than guppies in general? Or do mine just like to chill? I was expecting the mickey mouse to be all over the sunset wag, judging from all that I've read about livebearers. Not so much...

Here is my new female platy (dalmatian).

You can also see another one of my three females in one picture (the mickey mouse sunset one).

You can see mollys on the last picture too.

I really like the dalmatian one: she's really pretty. We've only had her a week so I keep taking pictures of her, poor girl.

Here's a shot of my sunset mickey mouse platy female after she ate some mini-gravel... Look at what's coming out of her. Honestly. She gave me a scare, but she's fine.

The other one's a mishapped shot of the same fish, but I like the reflection of her tail in the background.
