The most probable reason is that the fish are not happy. This would indicate that the conditions under which they are being kept is not what they require. Basic requirements for most livebearers are 1 gal of water per 1" of fish. Water temperature around 70F and a pH of around 7. Nitrites 0 Amonium 0. I would be doing a few water changes with good water and try feeding the fish with a good quality tropical fish flake food.
