How To Identify Male And Female Guppies
1. Body shape
Male and female guppies body shape is very different and distinctive. Male guppies usually have very slender an shorter bodies while female guppies are usually rounder and bigger than the males,

2.Size of the guppy
You may try an approximate measurement of your guppies to help determine their sex. Female guppies can grow up to 2 inches (6 cm) and larger than male guppies. Male guppies can grow up to 1 inches (3 cm).

3. Bright coloring and patterns
Male guppies are more colorful than females and their bodies are covered with bright coloring and patterns. Males come in different colors like orange, blue, violet, green, black, and white spots and stripes. Males use this coloring to attract a female for a mate.

4. Check for the gravid spot
While you are examining your guppy’s body shape and coloring, you should go a bit closer to your fish and check for a gravid spot. The gravid spot is a dark spot located on the underside of your guppy’s body, near the tail, and is a clear marker of a female. Males do not have a gravid spot.

5.Dorsal fin
The dorsal fin is located on the top of the fish. Male guppies have longer dorsal fins that flow in the water when they swim around. Female guppies have shorter dorsal fins that do not trail in the water as they swim.

6. Tail fin
The guppy’s tail or caudal fin, can help you determine the sex of the guppy. Male guppies have wide, long caudal fins that are often brightly colored, with elaborate patterns. Female guppies have shorter caudal fins that are not as wide and long as the males.

7.Anal fin
The guppy’s anal fin is located under the fish and is the smaller fin right before the tail fin. A male guppy have an anal fin that is long and narrow, with a slightly pointed end. He uses his anal fin to deliver sperm into the female.
