What is the difference between molly and platy fry?
Molly fry and platy fry are both types of baby fish from different species within the same family, Poeciliidae. Molly fry tend to be larger and may exhibit a more elongated body shape compared to the generally smaller and rounder platy fry. Additionally, molly fry often have a more varied coloration and fin structure, while platy fry are typically more uniform in color and pattern. Both require similar care in terms of water conditions and feeding, but their growth rates and adult sizes differ significantly.
