How can you tell how old the guppy fry are?

When will guppy fish show color? My guppy had fry by what time will I be able to tell their color and if male or female?

  • Answer:

    When baby guppies are born they are so small that to tell if it's male or female you would have to look very closely or use a magnifying glass. The males will have lots of colour like their dad and the females will have very little color like their mum.
