Hi all,

I assume these are my Platy’s feeder tentacles and do they get any longer?

Does anyone know what Platy this is?

Cheers

platygyra lamellina or goniastera australensis, often confused with one another in the hobby as they are almost impossible to tell apart without examining a bare skeleton.

Sweepers can get pretty lengthy on either so keep a distance ring around it.
