Your post leaves me clueless about what you want to breed and how you want to go about it.
If you want to breed platies, why'd you only get females?
If you want to breed bettas, that's a very involved undertaking... you can't just randomly stick 2 fish in a tank together and hope it works out- you need to condition them first, set up a proper spawning tank, and maintain separate tanks for your breeder adults before and after spawning. If you have a successful spawn (which can easily run 200-300 fry) you'll need fry rearing tanks and also need a way to separate out all the juvenile males once they grow out and start fighting among themselves.
