Can I buy a female guppy from a tank full of males and NOT have her give babies?

Darn. There's this gorgeous girl at the fish store, but she has two boys in her tank. She's so pretty...but babies!

Her tail looks like someone splashed ink on a sunset.

Your LFS may be willing to take the babies!

Yes. But I think me and my family don't want a bunch of babies that it's a "maybe" on..

I don't have another tank, unfortunately. Well...I have a small, octagonal tank that's probably more like 5 gallons. But i don't even know if it would work. It's been empty for years.

I know they'd be mutts, I don't mind.
What do you mean wait six months?

mutts are very beautiful some of them are so weird
after around 6 months all fry are adults
but put themin the 5gallon they will impregnate each other

works

Okay lol. But how would I go about setting it up? I've had my current 13 gallon tank for AGES. I got it when I was like 8. I don't remember what we had to do to set it up.

Eeek. If I did raise them, I would probably take them back/sell them once I could tell genders. Maybe keep a baby girl or two.
