29 Gallon Journal

idk maybe im seeing things. i really want to keep a female from her fry, but i kind of want it to be blue. :( she's a golden bouble bar platy and i have no idea what male she breed with since its not my platy cause i got her pregnant and he was in a different tank.

both of mine were prego when i got them, but there was only 1 male with them, so i know who the daddy is. and i own him. :)

but i think i might get special fry some day, cuz my nonprego f is dark red, while the others are red/orange. :)

but you can never know what your gonna get, cuz you can always get a fry who is different color.

do you have any male platies?
 
I see you've got sand in there (correct me if I'm wrong) with the plants. I'd like to start with live plants but thought that might be a problem. Do you find sand is ok for live plants? How many inches do you have in there? Also, do you do anything special for your plants besides provide them with enough light?
 
There really isn't a difference. I don't dose anything but I will dose excel.I like sand over gravel though. I have 3 inches of sand. Be sure to get some malaysian trumpet snails if you decide to get sand.
