About
The Mickey Mouse Platy Gold is a golden-bodied platy with a distinctive black caudal peduncle pattern that resembles the silhouette of Mickey Mouse's head and ears. Extremely hardy and perfectly suited to beginners and community aquariums. Prolific livebearers that coexist with a wide range of tankmates.
Care Guide
Keep in a mixed-sex group (2–3 females per male) in an aquarium of at least 60 L. Provide neutral to slightly alkaline water. Feed quality flake, micro-pellets, and occasional frozen foods. Easy to breed. Provide floating plants as fry cover. One of the most beginner-friendly fish available.
