my platy have been pregnant for ages...
when will they drop?
gettin tred of waiting now, if they dont drop in the next 2 weeks im just gonna put shrimp in my bowl.
 
Well, don't you think that It already gave birth and the angelfish ate them all up?

Angelfishes are smallfish predators you know. If you think the platy will still give birth, seperate it from the angelfish.

How often do you do Water Changes?? Are you doing them every week? With that setup you should do it Twice a week.
But once you do a water change, she should drop.
 
You have all of these fish in a three gallon bowl??

If so, that is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY overstocked. I would say you need atl the very least a 20 gallon tank if not bigger for all of those fish to live comfortably
 
Flagfish, this is a very rude and immature response to a caring individual. Vgeorge, no, he doesnt have them in a bowl but a not-much-better 17 gal or so tank... he plans to put the fry into that tiny bowl, prob with no filtration or heater. Youre right, he needs a larger tank for these fish, and would be better off getting rid of some.

... since you started it flagfish, we should all say "dude, can you read" right back at you, for not acting on any of the advice given to you months ago. :devil:
I dont blame your dad for not wanting to buy you another tank. Is there some reason you cant buy one yourself?
I notice you have a Latest Loss in your signature...which fish died? Or are you just anticipating it?
