They're pretty small, they are there, I've caught them. They're small and
grey, round at first and then they start moving around after a litlte bit.

Very difficult. The only advice I can offer is to try and have a very open
screen so you can move around to get to it. They move in a straight line and
are nearly impossible to catch.

I'm not sure what the problem is, just go to one of the smaller bodies of
water, and enter/leave until one shows up, then catch it as it skates near
the edge.

Turn up the sound, I think you can hear them buzzing, but I don't remember
for certain. They are hard to see, but they are there.

Guppies are the same size as goldfish and other tiny fish.
