I hope she pregnant lol she a big lady ahahha sorry I’m no help here lol
 
Beautiful picture!

She is pregnant. You can see her gravid spot and the dark spot on her stomach close to her anal fin.

You have several options.

- Separate the babies from the main tank once you realize they have been birthed.
- Take the momma out and put her in a separate tank/breeder tank. However, this can stress our momma out and she can abort the babies.
- Remove the adults, fish out the babies, put them in a clear breeder's box that is inserted within the main tank. This way you do not have to change their water separately and risk them reacting badly, they will adapt to the adult fish around them, the tank temp, and the tank contents (PH, KH, GH, etc). I do this step!

Good luck and congratulations!
 
She's a pregnant guppy but the male endlers won't chase nor eat the fry.
 
that is strange, aren't they very similar?
No, that's not strange. Yes, they're related to the guppies. But pure endlers and wild guppies don't tend to grab their young. A reasonable part of the fancy guppies like them as a snack.
The closer to wild, the more they leave their fry alone.
