How can you tell the difference between male and female platy?

The female's back fin under where her anus would be (behind the two pectoral fins) will have a fin that is fanned out...The male's fin in that spot is tucked back and you will usually see the gonopodium (penis-like organ) which is just a long straight thing that points backwards. A female with her fin tucked up can look very like a male, but when she relaxes and hovers in the water she will almost always let her fin fan out. It is difficult to sex livebreeders while they are swimming. The male sexual organs are also some of the last characteristics to develop, so juveniles suddenly switching from female to male is normal. It's not wise to buy platies or other livebreeders based on sex until they are fully grown.

How many offspring result from one betta spawning?

This largely depends on how well you condition the bettas before spawning, especially the female. If you try to spawn too early or do not feed her enough (in the two weeks before spawning, if she is eating everything you are offering you are not overfeeding) you will not get many eggs, maybe fifty or so. A well conditioned, fully grown female paired with an experienced male who looks after the eggs well may give you three hundred fry. A normal, well conditioned pair often lay 150 or so. Obviously it is silly to raise this many; it is best to wait until a week or so, cull everything obviously deformed or not growing, and then wait until six weeks and keep only the best to grow on. Not all of the eggs will survive. A good father will eat any egg that stops developing and becomes fungused, to protect the other eggs. However sometimes an inexperienced or confused male will spontaneously decide to eat the eggs or fry. If you can't afford to lose the spawn it is often wiser to remove the bubblenest, put it in a shallow container and float it in a heated tank. However, this does result in a lower hatch rate (50-60% as opposed to 80%.)
