Can platy cross breed?

4 October 2009 Comments

I was wondering if say…

A red wag platy could breed with a top sail or blue platy?

If so, can ANY platy breed with any platy?
–Red wag, Silver, Top sail, Blue, Mickey Mouse, Sunset, etc?

If so, can platy breed with mollies? They look very similar and are both live-bearing breeders right?

Possible? Possible but maybe unlikely? Or just not possible at all?

    Yes, all platies can breed with one another. That’s how you get the different color varieties and such. Platies and swordtails can also interbreed, and are very very similar to one another. Endlers and guppies can also interbreed, but I don’t believe the offspring can reproduce.
