I have just recently started breeding guppies for hobbyist purposes (and also for sales to anyone who might want them, and possible protein snacks if the amount of babies gets out of hand) I currently have 1 male and 2 females. There are two specific things that my male does that I was hoping someone on here might have an explanation for:
1.) Slowly swims to bottom of tank, pauses, and swims back up to the surface fast and vertically, repeat.
2.) when near a female, curves body into a u shape, makes his tail thinner, points his dorsal fin straight up, and vibrates his body.
Here are pics of the fishies:
