Guppy Inflated Stomach

[madmonkey04]

Hi I need help I have a Male guppy who has been fine until I noticed him hiding which is unusual to me as he s normally swimming with his other Male Guppies.
He has an inflated stomach and is moving ever so slightly whilst lying on the a part of the filter.
Please Help.

I'm so sorry to hear about your guppy.

Guppies, unfortunately, have been inbred for dozens of generations, with focus only on appearance and not the health of the fish. Because of this, guppies have a very low immune system and are prone to many illnesses. Bloating is often a sign of organ failure, a common occurrence in guppies over a year old.

He's defiantly in a better place now.
