I would love to buy platy fish in large quantities. However, I don't know if platy is a schooling fish? If so, how many platy fish are in a group and how many can I keep together?
Platy is not a schooling fish, but it can grow in small groups of about 3 to 6 platy fish. This is a good number to keep in an aquarium, along with other fish that coexist peacefully.
