hi, hope someone can help me, my sister was sitting looking at her tank (as she tends to do quite often) when she spotted at the back of the tank (its a 180 litres) tiny fry moving about, they were at the bottom of the tank beside a large plant, well hidden from the other fish. (she has 7 platties, 4 black phantom tetras, 4 rummy nosed tetras, 6 neon tetras, 1 cat fish, 2 loaches and 3 tetras she cant remember the names of!)Anyway she decided not too take any chances with the fry and called me, i've put them into my 12 gallon breeding tank which was fortunately empty. That was 6 days ago and i still dont know what kind of fry they are. they are approx 4mm long with yellow or orange stomachs, and their fins and tails are transparent, i think they may be platties but she insists she doesnt have any male platties in her tank, anyone have any ideas? i have only bred guppies and mollies so i'm not sure what they are. If it helps she did have male platties until a few weeks ago when she gave them to me
