Blue Parrot Variatus Platy

Post by Ltrepeter2000 »

I currently have two of these fish and was wondering if anyone had any more. Unfortunately mine both developed as males and I would like to do a tank with these guys. General description in case you know it by another name(I have seen about 5 common names such as Blue Platy, Parrot Platy, Sunset Platy Etc) The body and head are a blue silver mix with black spots like pepper The tail is a bright orange and the top fin is a bright yellow. Please let me know if you have any that we can work out a trade or if you have seen them in a store regularly so I can make a trip to get some. I will try to get a picture up so that the description is clear.

Thanks
Rob

PS: I originally got my two from PETCO and I believe they were a couple of mistakes included in a batch of Mickey Mouse Platys

Thanks again

Awesome Thanks. I will have to see about making a trip up there if no one has seen them closer. Really like how they look in the tank I have them in but two doesnt exactly do much for a 30 gallon long tank.
