They just have them in the tank they are put in. You choose. If the conditions don't suit the female, she can hold on to her fry and stop them from comming out, and she can even choose to die rather than let her fry be born into what she considers to be a bad place. To avoid this happening you need to know and stick to the rules of fishkeeping. The rules are. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water but more is better. :- Every tank needs a permanently running cycled filter. :- Every tank needs at least 50% of its water replaced every week. Stick to those rules and you stand a chance of keeping fish successfully. Miss out on any of them, and I can guarantee that your fish will have constant health problems.

∙ 7y agoYes, a female guppy will give birth about every month if mixed with male guppies/guppy. The way to tell if she will give birth soon is that she will look extremely bloated, her gravid spot goes darker and a bump appears below the gravid spot. I have also seen some frys' eyes too.
