    Default Platty fry growth rate,

    At what age do you move your platty fry in to your comm tank? Mine appear to be growing much slower than the guppies.

    For my batches, it seems to take about 60-90 days before I'm comfortable moving them up. I'm starting to leave them in the fry tank as long as I can, and then move them when a new batch of fry that they could possibly eat arrives. That's about 3 months for me.
