A Platy is a Platy is a Platy.(Xiphophorus maculatus variatus) The fancy name makes no difference. The gestation period for a Platy is about 3 to 4 weeks under perfect conditions but can take up 3 or 4 months if conditions are not to the fishes liking. If conditions are really bad she can refuse to let them out and they will be still born eventually (sometimes this kills her).

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.
no. fish can only mate with fish of the same species. Gouramis mate with gouramis and platys mate with platys.
