A friend told me he had lots of the white platys. So I headed up to his place today. He has them in a small shallow cement 'pond'. No circulating water. He takes no care of the 'pond'. Its FULL of leaves and gunk. He has some water hyacinth floating in there. The water is brownish red.
The fish seem totally happy and healthy (I caught a bunch but have them in quarantine). Crazy! They are SO BIG, much bigger than the red version I have. I think he feeds them cat food.
Here am I am worried about every little leaf, checking my pumps constantly, freaking out when the power goes out and you see a pond like this and think - I need a chill pill, take it down a notch.
