Signs of pregnancy are a large belly, a boxy-look from the front view, and a darker gravid spot, the spot, under the fish's tail. Near the day of delivery the gravid spot becomes darker and you can sometimes see eyes of the unborn fry as tiny black dots. Female guppies can drop fry every 4 weeks.

What fish are compatible with guppies?

Fish that have long, wavy fins should not be put with guppies, because guppies will nibble their long fins. Also, many bigger fish will eat guppies. Keep a separate tank with guppies and a few "cleaner" fish, which do not harm guppies.


Should you only keep one pregnant guppy in a birthing tank or can you have more because I have three pregnant guppies so should I put two of them in the community tank and one in the birthing tank?

I had a problem like this, a couple of fish pregnant at the same time. I would either keep them all the female guppies in the birthing tank or keep them in the community tank and when one of the female guppies give birth put the baby in the birthing tank. I did the second option and it was quite good, just don't overcrowd the birthing tank. :)
