Is My Guppy Being Bullied Or Settling In

HI guys!! So after much help as a beginner from you beautiful people... I'm finally getting there.

But I need a little more advise please. I recently purchased a couple of fancy guppies. Whilst my female has settled in nicely and is pregnant, my new male just doesn't seem to be settling in.

He tends so swim on his own at the top of the tank away from the other guppies!! He's tail has been nipped at and he goes a little ridged when my two big bullies of guppies go near him. They don't do anything to him. I'm worried he's unhappy.

Any thoughts?!

Thanks Paulo, that's why I haven't removed him yet. I do have a 23lt tank on backup for any emerganicies. And I did have a bit off difficulty with nipping with another guppies who has now settled in perfectly.

I just don't remember that one looking so unhappy!! I'm so soft I know x

Are the two bully guppies male or female?

Male... Big males!! I just couldn't leave him In there any longer. I've took him out along with one of my other placid guppies and put them in my other tank.

He stoped swimming and was just in the corner ... he seems much happier now he's in a different tank
