Plenty of us do, what do you want to know? There isn't much hardness in it but it is good to watch.

This site http://guppyplace.tripod.com/Breeding.html says that fry can be sexed at one week of age (surprises me!) and that the males' anal fin becomes pointed at 3-6 weeks old. I also found somewhere on that site that guppies are mature at about 6 months, but I thought it was 4....

Hmm.... where is Guppyman when we need him?
