Tiger Platies (Xiphophorus maculatus)

Tiger Platies are one of the most striking varieties of Platy, featuring bold black striping over bright orange and yellow coloration. Their contrast makes them a centerpiece in any aquarium. These Tiger Platies are tank-raised here in Florida at D&G Farms, ensuring strong health, steady coloration, and excellent shipping performance.

They are peaceful, hardy, and perfect for beginners and experienced aquarists alike. Tiger Platies thrive in planted tanks and mix well with other peaceful fish such as Guppies, Endlers, Corydoras, Tetras, Rasboras, and Cherry Barbs.
Other Platies we offer include Green Lantern, Red Wag, Sunset, Coral Red, Red Tuxedo, Panda, and Assorted Platies.
