Creating the Ideal Environment:
Platties flourish in a well-maintained aquarium of at least 10 gallons for a small group, with larger tanks offering more stable conditions and space for a thriving community. They enjoy a well-planted tank with plenty of hiding spots among live or artificial plants, as well as open swimming areas. Maintain stable water parameters: temperature between 72-78°F (22-26°C), and a slightly alkaline pH of 7.0-8.0. Good filtration with moderate flow is recommended.
Feeding & Care:
Assorted Platties are omnivores and will readily accept a varied diet. Feed them high-quality flake or micro-pellet food as a staple, supplemented with occasional treats like brine shrimp, daphnia, or blanched vegetables. Feed small amounts multiple times a day. Regular water changes (25% weekly) are essential for maintaining optimal water quality and promoting their long-term health and vibrant coloration.
