The female guppy will be very large and will have a gravid spot near her anus. But when she is ready to give birth she will be very still and huddling near the heater in your tank.

I have got about 5 platys and 4 guppys in my community tank. Can i put my pregnant guppy into my separate fry tank when i already have fry in the tank will the pregnant guppy eat the other fry?
If the fry are small enough to be eaten by the female guppy then she will eat them. If your community tank is well planted and you have plenty of hidey holes that the fry could hide in but the other adult fish can't enter, then the fry would have a better chance of survival out of the breeding/fry tank. You could also buy another livebearer breeding trap they are very cheap. _______________________________________________________________________ Ya that right they are but you have to remember that what she said is true!
