How does a guppy's colour develop?

[kitty falol]

Hi

I've got 4 relatively small guppies. One of them has got some lovely yellow and black leopard like colouring on its dorsal fin, but the other 3 have got transparent browny/dirty looking dorsal fins - with a mixture of colours on the rest of their body.

Yesterday, I noticed tiny light patches on 2 of the small guppies dorsal fins. It's really hard to tell if the patches are spots of light yellow or light blue - the same colour as their tails, or whether they've got white spot

So, does a guppy's colour develop in patches on its dorsal fin, or do I need to start treating for whitespot?

Thanks

Kathryn

White Spot look like small white fluffy spots on the fish I pretty sure your guppies don't have it. I'm pretty sure this is just normal colouring on the guppies but just incase keep an eye out.

Hi Guppylover

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I think you're right I've just had a closer look at them todayand the little patches seem to have got a tiny bit bigger and there's definitely some colour to them.

hehe, anxious newbie here, worrying about nothing!
