Hi, a couple of minutes ago i fed my fish,and like they all got a little i put the right amount, and they all got some, so now there all going to the top is this cause they want more? and also i have 2 red platy's and 1 orange 2 males 1 male the male is one of the red.
 
Fish are prone to being over weight because they don't understand when they are full, they just eat and eat and eat!

There are 2 common ways to tell how much to feed a fish...
1)Fish should be fed an amount about the size of their eye each day. (works if you have 1 fish)
2)Fish should be not be fed for more than 5 minutes. (Works for a lot of fish in a tank)

The oxugen level in the tank may be low but it is more probable that they jsut want more food! Don't give it to them!
 
Fish are greedy, they have no sensation of being full, leave them be. You've fed them and they'll get over it eventually and go back to swimming about normally.
 
thats normal for most fish just feed them what you are supposed to some fish try and beg for food i have 2 tiger oscars and they are always hungry and beg for more food just dont over feed them or you mite get some problems hope this helps
