Platys (Xiphophorus sp.) are livebearing fish so the eggs hatch internally. The gestation time can be controlled (increased) up to a certain extent by the female depending upon her prevailing conditions. The fastest time I know of is 4 weeks and the longest 3 months.
Sometimes a few hours and other times it can be over the course of a day.
Normally around 3 to 4 years they sometimes last for over 5 though
About 2-3 years
4 to 5 weeks.
It takes around 3 - 4 weeks for a platy fish to give birth.
Platy's are live bearing fish and do not lay eggs, the young are born alive and free swimming.
They do mate! As long as you have 3 females with 1 male and you keep the tank well planted and at the right temp!
Yes, That is definitely enough space
no it would fight till death because betta fish are aggressive
They are freshwater fish.
Platys are "live bearers" which means that their young are born as fish directly out of the mother, as opposed to those fish that hatch from eggs outside of the mother.

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.
Fish Food, Fish Flakes, dried Blood Worms
