    Are my guppies pregnant?

    Can anyone help me see if the guppies are pregnant?

    I have 4 females, currently, these 3 have these red coloured spheres in their belly (circled in red), much like the tobiko you eat at the sushi restaurant. Are these the eggs?

    I understand the gravids is supposed to be black, but are they the same for albinos? I didn't see any black spots of any of the 4 of them, but there was a fry in the main tank yesterday. I managed to scope it into the breeding tank, but the fella swam out into the main tank by itself... Can't be found at the moment. But there are quite a lot of plants, so there's still hope. I also noticed the weakness of that breeding box, so i bought a new one today, an external hanging on type, so the fry can't swim back.

    You mean eggs doesn't equate fries? Or that she is pregnant, just not at the stage of fries developed yet? Or like human, where the egg is there waiting to be fertilized?

    So before it goes into labour, what signs do I look out for? Will the gravid look black?

    I don't see their gravid spot.
    Instead I check on them every day..
    Their tummy will get bigger each day if pregnant.
