Before you choose from this collection
Explore platy colours and patterns, checking the stated identity, supplied size and sex where specified. The trade includes Xiphophorus maculatus, X. variatus and domestic forms; colour alone does not tell you their exact ancestry.
Platies can suit a prepared beginner with a mature, filtered aquarium and compatible measured water. Plan their group and adult space before buying, including room for possible fry. Our care guide explains the differences between forms and the limits of general stocking advice.

Frequently asked questions
Each listing shows its current price for the selected form and size. Check whether the offer is one fish, a pair or a group; do not assume every displayed price buys the same number of fish.
They can be, when the aquarium is mature and its water and dimensions suit the fish. Beginner-friendly does not mean safe in an uncycled tank or immune to poor water quality. Read the care guide before choosing your first group.
Our care guide discusses a group of at least three as a starting point, with adult space, sex ratio and behaviour checked together. Previously mated females can store sperm, so an all-female group does not guarantee no fry. Monitor pursuit and be ready to separate fish if necessary.
Browse the current listings for colours and forms, then select the size you want to check its availability. Named forms and assortments can vary; a photograph or colour name alone does not guarantee a particular sex.
The names can refer to different Xiphophorus species or domestic forms. Compare the exact identity and temperature guidance rather than assuming their requirements are identical. Our platy care guide explains those distinctions.
Platies give birth to free-swimming young. Some Xiphophorus lines can hybridise, so keep breeding lines separate if ancestry matters. Plan space for young before mixing sexes, and do not expect a fixed breeding schedule from every fish.
