I know m8 I was only joking

...but I haven't kept guppies so cann't help there - I do know they look like they're about to burst though - maybe a clearer pic would help if you can get one

I think it might get bigger. I remember from when i had some. I had about 50 adult in my tank and only ever saw 1 baby (rosy tetras scoffed the lot).

might be preggers, but i would say has a while before fry come.

Definately pregnant but from the picture it is hard to tell exactly how pregnant, at a guess I'd say that she WON'T be dropping fry anytime this week, but this is little more than an educated guess. Any chance of a more clear picture and hopefully I can give you a better timescale - she doesn't seem hugely pregnant - but that may just be the way the picture has been taken....

hi JHT,
When my lady guppies actually give birth, they look like they are going to explode! They change from being really huge and roundish to almost squarish just before the birthing starts.

William posted a couple videos of a mom guppy giving birth:

hmm i dont think this week maybee next week but im no expert. as for the shot its much nicer i think you may be focusing on the glass due to reflected light perhaps if you turn off the rooms light and draw the curtains.
edit : and turn off ure monitor.
