For my very first aquarium I decided to start with guppies, I got a beautiful blue female who I named Azura, and she was always so strong and active. She has had about 4 or 5 pregnancies so far, but lately she started acting oddly, losing a lot of weight and being less active, usually staying at...
Hi All,
I have recently purchased this guppy and it was sold to us as a male. As you can see from the photo, it has a large black spot on its belly. Not sure what it could be so I googled and understand female guppies have gravid spots. What do you guys think? Is this male or female? And if...
Hi! I have a fish tank with guppies (male and female) and goldfish. I believe one of my female guppies are pregnant and soon to give birth. I removed her from my main tank and put her in a smaller one. She seems pretty’s stressed and I’m not sure what to do. I have a netted breeder tank in my...
My guppy is definitely very pregnant with a black stomach bottom, I moved her to another smaller tank like bottle, but she looks very very stressed rather than calm as other sites tells me, is there anything I can do or should I just move her back to the bigger tank with other guppies? Thanks :)
Introduction and question!:banana:
Hello all! Thank you for creating this great space. I’m new here.
Just found the forum while googling info to take care of my new tank.
I found 3 fries in my tank a few weeks back. And the guppy I think was the mom died shortly.
I’m new to the hobbie, and...
Hi,
We’re very new to fish keeping and bought some guppies a few days ago. as one of the guppies seemed like she may be ready to give birth (squarish belly, staying in one spot) and the males kept nipping at her we put her in a breeder box. When we checked on her we saw a piece if white fuzzy...
I got her three weeks ago from the aquarium store, the owner thought she could have gotten pregnant in transit. She’s super aggressive, still very hungry and active, poops a lot. There’s only her and one other female in my tank.
Thank you!
First time poster! TIA!
Hi guys, I just got two female guppies in my cycled 20 gallon tank with only a mystery snail. I’ve never had a pregnant guppy so I’d like some advice/input. I thought she was in labor last night but she was just pooping up a storm… still pooping this morning. She’s very...
I got three female guppies today and put them in a quarantine tank. And I just noticed that one of them, the very obviously pregnant one, has a potential birth defect. Her top fin isn’t centered on her back. Rather, it seems to be growing out of her side instead.
What should I do? Could it just...
Ok so I’ve recently purchased a smaller tank for birthing, and I was wondering if it was a smart idea to place my obviously pregnant guppy in there ? And also does she look close to giving birth? I can see the fry eyes
My Guppy gave birth to 6 fry around a week ago. The fry are doing very well and all have survived so far. But I swear my guppy is still pregnant! Is this a normal thing for Guppies? She still has a round belly and I swear I can see some fry in there if I look closely near her gravid spot. You...
This is my second post, I just realized I may have another pregnant Guppy but I’m not so sure, she’s hiding in the plants just like my other pregnant Guppy ? Can anyone confirm and determine when she may give birth
Hi, I’m wondering if my female guppy is pregnant, she looks pregnant to me, but I could do with other people’s opinions. I’m just a bit skeptical because the previous female guppy I bought ended up dying 3 days after I got her. I was told she was pregnant from the store I got her but I’m pretty...
Hi, I’m wondering if I can have some opinions on what really happened to my female guppy! I bought her 3 days ago from a fish store and was told she was carrying, and would give birth to fry soon. However, upon observing her for the past two days I must say I was wondering whether she really was...

I have 3 pregnant guppies, the black and silver ones are far along I’m sure I just don’t know, they have the box shape, when should I separate them and when do you guys expect them to give birth ?
Hey y’all,
does she look like she’s ready to give birth? She did about 4 weeks ago and she just looked much larger today and so did the gravid spot.
Thanks for any help!!
Hi!
so I bought a couple guppies from the pet store a little over a week ago, and today I found 2 babies in my tank!
I can’t tell which one of these would be the mama, they’ve both had those dark spots since I got them and the orange one has always been huge. I’ve separated them for now, but...
Hey so i took this first picture 2 days ago and the second right now the dark spot is completely gone does that mean she gave birth? She never got too big so i didn’t get a chance to move her to the separate tank to give birth. Thanks in advance!
Hi again, ( SOOO many people have viewed and not said anything and i'm feeling a little stressed here... )
So i have a guppy that i'm told is due any day now and another due in a few weeks. This may not be accurate as it was via this forum and i'm a first time breeder.
So, i had four females and...
Hi everyone,
New to this site and to keeping guppies.
I have a female guppy who I think is pregnant, (I'm assuming upwards of 23 days). I moved her into her own tank a few days ago as the males harrass her too much I thought it was too stressful for her. She has started to swim completely...
Hey everyone. I recently bought a female (orange) and male guppy (blue) to add into my tank that’s about 10 gallons. It’s been about 2 weeks since I got them and I’ve noticed that the female is a little bigger now. I’ve done a lot of research and I’m new to this type of fish, so I’m not sure if...
