Guppy acting odd?

[ella777]

One of my guppies seems to have distanced himself from the others about two weeks ago.
I didn't really think anything of it, but hes always in one corner, in his own little world.
He is still eating and looks healthy?

If he’s acting otherwise normal I wouldn’t worry, one of my guppies doesn’t care to stay with the group, and does his own thing. As long as you don’t notice any bullying, I doubt he’s hiding from stress.

Thank you, he does seem to have his tail down quite a bit? He also doesn't swim too much. Usually stays at the top away from the others.

I see that sometimes when they’re malnourished, you can try feeding him live foods like black worms to try and fatten him up. Could also be the start of swim bladder or related to stress, I’ve seen multiple causes. If he’s hiding from the others as well then it may be the latter two, in which case you’ll need to observe to see what’s stressing him out, and check water parameters too.

I feed them 3 different foods as well as bloodworms everyday.
I have no clue how he could be stressed, the water parameters are all normal...
Hes not really hiding from the others, he does join them a lot of the time.
Does he just want his own space?
His tail does seem to hang down quite a bit.
