Hi,
Wan to share some pics on me preparing my platy for delivery in an internal tank inside my main tank. My platy is a very productive mum, has been dropping every 2-3 weeks. She is showing signs of dropping, getting less active, having many black spots on her bloated tummy. I dividing the tank vertically instead of horizontally so that food will not be stuck under the divider and it will be easier to clear all the waste, during the quarantine period.
In the other side where the mum is separated, I put some Java Moss, hornswort and 1 amazon sword leaf for the fries to hide after birth. This mum is quite aggressive, have seen her hunting down fries immediately after birth, and usually the fries are quite lost when they are introduced to this world and often got eaten up. Hope she will drop soon and fries will hide inside the planted compartment
