Hi all!

I was just wondering who has interbreed fish by accident or not!!!

The reason I ask is because today my "virgin" koi swordtail dropped three fry! The only male fish it was housed with for a short period was a male red tiger platy! I heard that they can interbreed, but never thought it would happen!

Noooo its a female I think... I picked up a prego female and a male. ... male looked sick, but thought Id try.. (it was the only one) I wanted to pick it up for you actually, but it died on the way home. I tried. .. the female only dropped 6 fry. Only one lived. This one. And then her gills swelled up with some red mass.... and she died... I was hoping it was male..as they always have female ones. but im pretty sure its female... its only 1/4" or so...
