GOLD CRESCENT PLATY

GOLD CRESCENT PLATY is one of the several live-bearing species of freshwater fish popular with aquarium enthusiasts. Grouped together with their close cousins, the swordtails, and platys are part of the genus known as Xiphophorus. They are hardy, compatible with other fish, and extremely easy to breed. GOLD CRESCENT PLATY also come in a variety of attractive colors and forms.

Although GOLD CRESCENT PLATY comprises only a couple of species within the Xiphophorus genus, there are considerable variations in color and even fin type within these species. Furthermore, GOLD CRESCENT PLATY interbreed so readily that many specimens sold in the trade are mixed hybrids. However, they all do well in similar conditions, so unless your goal is to breed a pure line, this doesn’t really matter. Choose your variety based on whatever appearance you like.
