Hi All Guppy Pro's,

This fry is one month old. I cannot tell if it is male or female. It has no gravid spot, and others have are developing gravid spots. I know they aren't the clearest pics. Thoughts? Thank you. Guppy 2 11.22.19.jpg Guppy 11.22.19.jpg
 
You won't be able to tell for certain until puberty. Just because you can't see a gravid spot doesn't necessarily mean it's male. If it is, the anal fin will soon start to change shape.

Thank you essjay. :fish:Yes and a few of the ones without gravid spots their anal fins are turning into the gonopodium it looks like.
 
And do the fry normally look like their Mothers or Fathers? I have no idea what the Father looked like. :dunno: The Mother is my profile pic. She gave birth 4 days after I bought her. :) Thanks.
