It can take her quite some time to deliver all the fry, but I know on my Guppies the gravid spot does turn redish pink during and after the delivery...start looking closely at the gravel, and plants, I'm willing to bet you will have fry!!!heidi EDIT:Forgot to say, Welcome to FP!!!

houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003 | So Rachel...do you have fry??? Just thought I'd check up and see how she did, also noticed I didn't mention the fact that she will usually stick to the bottom of the tank, near the plants when delivering...And mine always look as though they are huffing and puffing, or that's what it looks like to me, the breathing heavily and "just sitting there"...Heidi "I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom."
