I was wondering because I only have room in my tank for 9 more fish and I think I want 2 mickey mouse platies but I would like to know if I need more than two? Please Help!!!
 
It's best to have a male and 2 females when it comes to platies. If you get two, make sure both are females because males tend to pick on each other sometimes. As far as I know, they aren't schooling fish. Mainly tetras, danios, and barbs are schooling fish, not livebearers.
 
No, platys are not schooling fishes. They can easily be kept as individuals or as pair.
