Description
The Red Wagtail Platy is a Platy with a deep orange body with black fins and tails.
Platies are one of the most beginner-friendly fishes due to their temperament, ease of care, and ability to be mixed with other community fish. Platies also come in many different varieties like the Mickey Mouse Platy, and the Black Platy. Their many different colours make them a pretty sight in your aquarium. They originate from the rivers and streams of South America. A well-planted peaceful community tank is sufficient for Platies to thrive.
They are very peaceful fish and can be mixed with other peaceful community fish. Be cautious when mixing this fish as it prefers much more alkalic and harder water. Other tank mates that can be mixed with Platies are Rainbowfish and Mollies. They are livebearer fish and will reproduce rather quickly in an aquarium.
They are not fussy eaters and will accept many commercially available fish foods in flake or pellet form. Live and frozen foods such as bloodworms, Artemia, and Daphnia can also be given.
