Usually its black with eyes and now its red?

Answer 1

That means she's closer to giving birth. The more red and pink the closer she is to delivering. if it's black then she's got awhile to give birth.

Answer 3

That is just definantly normal, but i do DOT recommend to remove them into a smaller tank. Just put plants and decor into your current tank, so fry can hide. My guppy was pregnant a week ago, i moved it into a smaller tank and it died under stress, fry did not come out of its belly either. I cut its belly and there were 20 dead guppy fry. Thus, keep it in your current tank it can release fry peacefully, you may buy a breeding box from a petstore so your fry won't get eaten.

Answer 4

That's fine ......all of mine turn that colour
