One of my female guppies is only about 2 or 3 months old and she is pregnant again for the 2nd time.  I notices tiny black eyes moving around in her stomach last night.  Can anyone tell me how far along she is?

Guppies are sexually mature at around 3 months old, so it's not surprising that she is pregnant. They usually gestate for about 1-2 months (depending on conditions and stress). My best guess is that she has another week or two to go. Good luck!
 
I have a guppy that has Been just brought home from the pet shop and has had baby's is this usual and my other guppie from the same tank at the pet store and has a black a dark spot the guppies look like the have been alive for at lest 3 months
 
It's very common indeed; guppies are sometimes called' millions fish' because they breed so quickly.
 
You can assume that all female guppies are pregnant all the time. They can even store sperm from their last mating, so they can get pregnant even if there are no males around!
