LOL..... MAles will flirt with anything. The kinda go into a "C" shape and vibrate....Oh Baby, yep they are looking for action. However having said that I have seen mine flirt with rocks and even flake food. They will do the deed in as small amount of time as 0.7 of a second...Poor Guppies! Did you say One of your ladies were preggers..... If thats the case watch her carefully cos if the males are all over her, she may be ready to give birth or may have just given birth. The males sense this and want to be first in. When they do the deen they release 6 sperm packets. So even if you seperated the two, she still will have babies every month up to 6 months. Thank God humans aint like that  Hope that helps. |

LOL, if it is a male guppy and he can still breath then he will be trying to 'make more fish'. Usually with either anything that moves or in a fix, anything round. Mine once fell in love with a flouro pink pebble that fell in the tank.

LOL @ Fluro pebble. I was watching one male after reading this post, and he flirted so hard, was vibrating his beautiful tail he went smack into the side of the tank. Boy he had a look of wounded pride LOL
