I'm not sure if my Platies are really scared but this is what happened:
I had a Blue platy (Female) and a Suntail Platy (Male). After a few days introduced 2 Serpae Tetras and a Head&Tail Light Tetra. Its been 2 days since I added the tetras.
My Blue Platy is hanging out at the top near the heater (it did over-eat on one accassion and I haven't fed any of the fishes since then). The Suntail was active yesterday, but today it is simply sitting inside the cave. It did come out once (when I wagged my finger at it) and checked out the area outside, went for a short swim and once again went inside the tank.
I added two teaspoons of Aquarium Salt lastt night.
After checking the water params, I'm planning to add a Platy and another Serpae Tetra (as one is harrasing the other - thought having 3 will keep it calm). Let me know if you think it is a good idea.
The tank is a 14g @ 80F and is moderately planted.
Thanks
