Guppys very skinny help?

Well there is skinny (as in need more feeding), in which case high quality food, not necessarily bloodworms which are full of fat, will fill them up and then there is skinny as in stomachs sunken in so inverting.  If its the second it is likely to be worms, maybe a parasite, or wasting disease hence my asking if you can post a photo.

HFF sells praziquantel in liquid form.  They are licensed to do so.  Formalin is also an alternative however prazi is safer for you to use than formalin.

What do the others look like.  If they are fat and healthy looking then i would wait.  Sometimes female guppies do die after giving birth - after all it must take a lot out of them.  If you see the others starting to lose weight despite being well fed then I would recommend you give it a try.
