Help identifying these fish

[YoshivsJoshi]

Hello, my Nan got these fish for £10 for 10 and they’ve started breeding we are trying to identify them but I’m unsure so we need your help thank you

I believe guppies, but the last time I identified a fish as a guppy, turned out it was a white cloud mountain minnow lol. Judging from the lack of a dorsal fin in these pics though, I would say these are in fact guppies (for real this time).
Once they start breeding, they probably won't stop. Guppies are notorious for popping out babies like they're living machine guns. If you don't want a tank overrun by many, tiny, hungry mouths I would suggest rehoming them. Unless that's what you're into, then by all means -- have at it and have fun!

I like your profile pic by the way, Dracovish is such a cool little guy.

I’ve got more photos, also Dracovish is my favourite Pokémon I love it so much, can’t wait for them to release the life size Dracovish plush in 5 months!

Dracovish is the best Pokémon!

Yep, definitely guppies lol. Sometimes I doubt myself a little too much lol.

It's so cool! Me and my partner kind of want the lifesized Lucario, but sort of have nowhere to put it lol.

Thank you from me and my Nan, also could have it in the front room, would be a good conversation starter if you have guests over aha

in the first picture they look like guppies but the one in the middle on the left looks like a molly. However, I can't see her in the other pics.

They look to me to be mosquitofish

 

[I Like Rare Fish]

I agree. I would think it’s a Mosquitofish, not a guppy

I agree. I would think it’s a Mosquitofish, not a guppy

The narrower tail-fins would point to that for sure, as well as the generally dull colours. Didn't know that mosquitofish were sold in the aquarium trade though! Aren't they quite similar as species?

Gambusia are not normally sold because most countries consider them noxious species.

Female guppies can be grey and have no colour.

Female guppies and gambusia can look similar but guppies are much more peaceful
