He could be bloated or constipated. Try fasting for 3 days, then feed a deshelled thawed pea.

What's fasting? And the thing is, I have about five guppies, and they are all pigs, how do I feed him those?

For the peas I Boil them in water for a minute or two, then remove the shell, and squish them a tiny bit so that the guppies can bite into them, and drop them into the tank...

Fasting is not feeding for 3 days. It gives him time to empty his stomach. Don't worry, they'll be fine. Also it won't hurt if they all get some pea, it helps with constipation

Thanks for this information. I have seen this about feeding the fish peas before ( I had a Mickey Mouse Platy with bloat) I just didnt know how to feed it to her.
