...if you cant see other fish or remember what fish are in there, maybe you forgot her fat belly? without any other fish but guppies, its safe to say its a guppy LOL

Hi Kuba, I've deleted your duplicate threads and merged another. It's only necessary to start on thread per topic.
Thanks

Kuba,

Im not a scientist, or an expert on fish. But. It seems that if you only have guppies in the tank, males and females, then the fry have to be guppies. My female just had fry today and she still looks fat. Sometimes they don't have all the fry at once. So, your females might look the exact same after they have fry. I hope this answers your questions. Also, it would help if you put some pictures up so that people can try to identify these fry and tell you what they are.
