Ditto! I keep an eye out and if it's only an isolated incident, I won't worry so much. But if it's not right after feeding time or if they do it on ornaments as well, then I would question. I've never heard of guppies being itchy for no reason though. That's a new one for me.

I've observed that salt can make them flash too. After all, the point of salting the water is to irritate the skin and make them thicken the slime coating as a defense.
