The Mickey Mouse Platy is one of the most popular variants of the common Xiphophorus hybrids
 

The common aquarium platy is second only to the guppy in popularity. These small fish come in a huge array of colours, and we often have several different types in stock.

Platies are small fishes, and ideally suited to a small community aquarium. They are livebearers, and breed constantly and easily. They can be used as inexpensive dither or target fish for any number of small cichlids.
