mollies and platy fry to adult (how long)

[numberonebikeslover]

Can any body tell me that:

How long it takes for a molly fry to become adult? and how long for a platy fry to become adult?

I have about 9 of them (mollies)2 months old yet only one inch hardly. Others are just born about 45 of them 6 days old. While platties are 3 weeks old yet smaller than the newborn mollies.

Thanks.

I have guppy fry that are 4 months old and I am just able to sex them now. Some tips on good growth are
-feed 4+ times a day
-feed a large variety of food
-do plenty of water changes
-keep the water quite warm
-make sure you have salt in the water
and it helps to have their own aquarium so you can have the conditions just right

-make sure you have salt in the water

Thank you very much for your response. Salt? is this salt the famous (NaCl) that we use in our daily cooking?

Secondly, one of my friend who have some experience in this field he said to add very little amount of Potassium Per-magnate it will firstly turn the entire aquarium very light blue then later on it will be slightly yellowish like blur. It kills the bacteria and harmful micro organisms. I've tried it and it works well. I would be delighted if you share your experiences on this.

Thanks again.
