White blob on guppy fry

I went to feed my guppies this morning and saw all of my fish looked fine except for one little guppy fry. He has a strange white blob/bubble near his backside. Is it something to be concerned about? This is a heavily planted 30 long aquarium that has been set up since July 2020.

I have one of those too. I always suspected that it was that their yolk sac didn't absorb when it should have. I did euthanize a little one with this, as it wasn't doing well.  But the one I have now is growing just fine, so I'll leave him be.
