How can i tell if my guppy fish is pregnant?
for the guy who says look for eggs - WRONG! guppies are live breeders, as are many fish, like most sharks.
anyway, look for the big black spot on her stomach. and remember to get the floating plastic baby breeder thingie. put her in it when she gets really swollen. the babies drop through a vented V shape in the plastic and are saved. otherwise, the guppies, including mom, will eat them. the babies are cute little critters.

Hikari Tropical Fancy Guppy was developed as a result of extensive research into the habits of many types of guppies with the purpose of improving their breeding habits, growth rates, overall health, and resistance to disease.

Assorted Fancy Guppy

Guppies are a popular fish for aquariums because of their bright colors and the long flowing fins of the males. Guppies can be a variety of colors. Males have long fan-shaped tails and long dorsal fins. Females are less colorful, and lack the elaborate fins. Guppies are peaceful fish and can be kept in most community aquariums. Because of their long finnage, fish that have a tendency to nip at fins, such as barbs, would not be appropriate tankmates. Guppies are live bearing fish, and will usually reproduce frequently in the home aquarium. The adult guppies and other fish may eat the young fry, so they should be placed in a breeder trap or a nursery tank until they are larger. Guppies are not sold in pairs but if you would like to request a specific number of males or females, please contact the livestock department to make your requests. You may also request color as well. This is a Restricted item and is not covered by our Arrive Alive 5 Day Guarantee.

Two-way Guppy Breeder

The "V" partition, which is included, is designed to help safely separate new fry from the mother. It was engineered with wide-slotted side vents to promote water circulation that furnishes oxygen and fresh water to the fry. Also features air tanks that allow it to float freely in the aquarium.
