They're right, it's a platy fry. You got me puzzled when I saw this picture and read the title. Is it just one or have you already discovered more?

When it comes down to small fry, I got the same problem trying to photograph them. Sometimes it works but most of the time, it sucks...

I got home from work and found 1, so I'm assuming they ate the rest.

That's a pity! But fry can also hide very well. And when not expected, you can see some more fry swimming.

Sorry, i truly hope you find them. I often stare at the tank counting fish and assume that this or that fish is dead only to have them show up out of the blue.
