How do you tell the difference between female and male guppies? Males are more slender right? And females have some sort of sac looking thing, making them look fatter.

In a nutshell, that's about right.

Female guppies have a profound belly, they bear live babies so they need a big belly for the babies.

I think I have a pregnant guppy. She has the darkish spot right behind her "budda belly". Do all females have that, or just the pregos?

Sounds like she's preggers! Nice going! Can I ask where you found guppies? I still can't find them here!

Just a local owned pet store, not any sort of chain store.

Wal mart pet department has fancy ones. (Ours does)

I've checked three or four Walmarts near here and they carry males only... I should probably look closer to see if there are any errant females in with the males, though.
