newguppyhobbiest Fingerling Posts: 18 Kudos: 27 Votes: 0 Registered: 06-Aug-2004	3 days ago I got 2 new guppies from a pet store by my house and i guess one was pregnent because i came home yesturday and there were only 2 baby guppies and this morning i couldn't find any. I have identified which one is the female and have also learned a lot since. I would still like some advice so this does not happen again.
