  • Aggressive Platy

    From Maria Blakesley@1:278/230 to All on Wed Feb 25 12:34:00 2004
    Hi. I seem to have a problem with a platy (bred in my tank) who is
    chasing other fish - particularly the phantoms. The tank is well
    established and have had the same fish for quite some time now. Any suggestions apart from removing what is a perfectly healthy fish?

    If the platy is male, maybe adding more female
    platys will help? I know my most persistent
    male swordtail calmed down after I gave him
    a harem of 4 females.
