My pregnant guppy looks liked it is squared off but isnt really fat?


I really need help this is my 1st time breeding guppies!!

Don't worry, shes just not fully ready yet to release her babies. Give her time and plenty of food and hiding places for the babies. Just hang in there you'll have babies soon enough =)

then its probally just beginning to devolop

There's nothing you need to do. Have lots of plants and rocks for hiding places for the fry and just leave the fish alone. The fry will be born and the strong ones will hide and survive. It is very stressful for the mother to be put into a breeding box and the fry don't really do much better by being separated from the rest of the tank.
