my silver molly recently dropped fry. I'm unsure how many there were, because I was out of the house , and when I returned there was only one left.So I put it in my fry net, and it's been almost a week now, and I've noticed what appears to be orange patches around his head/ gills. He's still pretty small, so I can't tell if it actually does have orange on him, or if it's just my eyes playing tricks, but; could one of my red platies mated with my silver molly?

don't know that platies will mate with mollies, but I'm guessing with 11 platies it is probably a platy baby. Fry don't start getting their color for at least a few weeks.
