Red Wagtail Platy

Xiphophorus maculatus: Red Wagtail Platy. 

These vibrant fish are stunning to behold, with their Red body and Black fins.

You will receive 1 male and 1 female Platy.

Unlike other tropical fish, both sexes will look amazing in your personal aquascape because both males and females fully display this flamboyant coloring. 

These fish are juvenile now, and will continue to color and fill out as they age. Females mature to 2.5 inches, and males mature to a slimmer 2 inches in approximately 4 -6 months. 

All fish are breed and raised by us in PNW well water. We are meticulously line breeding these beauties to increase the size and darkness. 

Juveniles now, these fish will mature and grow out in color and size after you have received them. We offer different ratios of genders. Please note that ratios are dependent on availability and may not be currently in stock. 

Our pictures represent the Sire and Dame as well as males and females of different ages to show how they may mature over time.

Your fish are born in the U.S. and are raised with extreme care by Good life Aquatics. They live in pure PNW well water with a PH of 7.4, TDS 250. Their diet consists of high quality specialty fish food from Ark BioRite.

All young are birthed into their own aquarium and raised there for two months or until sexing. We do not use breeder cages or continuously use nets to move our fish to other tanks. All of our tanks have sand bottoms, matten filters, and are home to live plants. This includes our thriving Pistia Stratiotes (water lettuce), where, among its large roots, the dames birth healthy fry.

Good Life Aquatics prides itself on the health and welfare of your fish. If you have any questions or concerns, please message us!
