    Not sure about this one. He’s healthy but they sent 2 males and they seem to be aggressive.

    Panda platys

    I love how they look. They are still a little skittish and hide a lot. I received 2 males and 2 females. I think they will get more comfortable as time goes on! Flip Aquatics is a great place to buy fish. I think they are better quality than the pet store chains. Thank you! Sue
