You breed platies by putting a male and female together and they should mate in their own time. When buying your platies ( i am telling you from experience) look at a female that you like though also try to find a pregnant one so your will have fry soon. if it is pregnant there is a chance that she will have more broods without having to mate again for a while.
It takes around 3 - 4 weeks for a platy fish to give birth.
They are freshwater fish.
A platy is a type of tropical fish. It is not a quantity or measure so one can not have a "platy of" anything including guppies.

Platy's are live bearing fish and do not lay eggs, the young are born alive and free swimming.
They can be pregnant (gravid) at 3 or 4 weeks.
I think that fish would be a platy (pla-eye).
