Dorothy Nolan –
Received the Green Copper Wag Platy in perfect condition. The fish are active and colorful, and they’ve adapted well to my 20-gallon planted tank. Very peaceful and don’t stress other fish. Easy to care for and a great addition to any community tank.

The copper green color is striking and the fish are very calm. They’ve been in my aquarium for two months and still show vibrant activity. I’m happy with the quality and the shipping speed.

The fish arrived healthy and looked vibrant. They’re a nice addition to my tank and don’t seem to compete with other species. A bit shy at first but settled in quickly.
