Okay, I've had four guppies till yesterday. I had two Tequila Guppies and Two Tuxedo Guppies. It seems to me that the Tuxes are bullying the others and killing them. Is it possible for them to be aggressive and territorial? It is just the one we call Sparky is being the bully.

Seems U need some females in with them to keep them from killing other males.. IF no females, they will kill out all the other guppy males in the tank.. weird, but I guess they seem to think they are hogging all the females..
So U need to get three females per male.. to keep everyone happy.. AND then the fry start to show up. so get some floating plants for on top and that wil help them hide from the adults.. Or those floating breeders work out good, and keep the fry safe..
They are live barers and the fry go up, not down into the gravel.. weird again from what we are used to.. so floating plants help them here or the floating breeders. Feed them Baby brime shrimp, I would get the frozen, for 4 months. ( as I read on care of fry!)
Other than that, I dont' know what to tell U..
MAYBE someone else wil know more. I have not had them for years.. Barb

Thanks, pet store told me that too.
Okay, just down to one guppy. We gave two back to the pet store.
I now have three platys, one guppy, one red tetra, two dwarf plecos, two neons, and two peppered cats.
Everyone is getting along good.
My one platy is a half breed. It looks pink, orange, and white.
