My pregnant guppy still does not give birth to fry2007-11-24 23:39:25

I have been putting her in a breeding box floating on my main aquarium and everyday she just swims around freely!!

Answers:

to tell if she is ready to have her fry she should have a really black spot on her belly called the graved spot her belly will look boxie when shes ready to drop she could stop eating and kinda hang around the bottom of the tank! They have fry around every 21 to 31 days once they get prg they store sperm and can have sever batches of fry after even without a male! I don't personally like those nursery traps they can stress the fish out and cause her to abort a pregnancy and it could even cause them to die i suggest getting some floating plants and some breeder grass and just let natuer take its course you can always fish the fry out latter if you chose to!! Best of luck to ya

are you sure she is pregnant? However, guppies are pregnant for 20 to 26 days, so just be patient.

Guppy ? dont worry. If it is a female and there are other males around, the reproduction is very fast, and before long, you will be having 100s of guppies.

sounds like any day now you'll be a grandfather.

If she has been pregnant for around a month then she should have them any time now. Those breeding boxes can really stress a fish out, especially if you keep taking her out and putting her back in. When the fish is stressed she can hold on to those babies until she feels more comfortable, if she is not that far along then she can actually abort them.
