Hey everyone. I recently bought a female (orange) and male guppy (blue) to add into my tank that’s about 10 gallons. It’s been about 2 weeks since I got them and I’ve noticed that the female is a little bigger now. I’ve done a lot of research and I’m new to this type of fish, so I’m not sure if she’s pregnant. I’ve attached a few photos for you guys to see. I really need help with this! Thanks.

She is pregnant/ gravid.

You need a picture on the back of the tank to make the fish feel more secure.

You need some floating plants in the tank to give her and the babies some hiding places. Water Sprite (Ceratopteris thalictroides/ cornuta) is the best plant for livebearers. You can grow it on the surface and plant it in the substrate.
