Thanx for the compliment. I love the colors on her tail. unlike most of the other females I saw in the tank she had a colorful tail. Yea she is small compared to my other two guppies. I just didn't know if they would all of a sudden change colors, but I guess so. I kinda figured it wasn't a disease because all of my other fish are healthy. and seem fine. Thanx for the input.

Are you sure that's a female? It may just be the way it's swimming but that anal fin looks like a gonopodium. Maybe it's a young male developing it's colors.

jeaninel you are RIGHT!!! now the fish has changed totally! it's definitely a male! but I swear it was a female earlier. maybe just not developed... but Now I have a dilemna. I have 2 males and 1 female guppy! the Female is larger than both but still I am going to have to get some more females to even it out so the males don't stress her out! How many should I get...


I have 3 tetras, 1 cory cat and 2 male guppies and 1 female guppy!

Get 2-3 more females assuming you have room in your tank. Also be prepared for babies! lol
