You can give away some of them, or separate some of the males and females. You could also give some of them to the pet store that you originally got them for. I am sure that they would be more than happy to take them off of your hands. As separating them could be a little difficult, I would suggest giving them to the pet store and possibly asking the store for a more colorfull fish in exchange for five guppies, or another deal similar to that. Good luck!

Don't flush them! How would you like it if someone flush you? Call a mom and pop petstore they just might buy them from you. You could keep them apart. Didn't you know that guppies reproduce at such a fast rate?

if all you want are the colorful ones, take out the females and give them to your local petstore.
If you want to try breeding, you will need at least 4 10 gallon tanks
1 for the males, 1 for the females, 1 for breeding a male and female and 1 to raise the fry in.
also, you can check out the link on breeding fancy guppies

I had to seperate the sexes, it was the only way to get them to stop. Flushing them is cruel. Go around to some petstore and ask if they will take any or go to some fish websites and ask if any body would take them. You can even go to freecycle or craigslist and say you are giving them away.

You may want to put them in seperate tanks to keep them from reproducing. OR you can Flush them... Or maybe sell them to a pet shop.

first you need to seperate the males and females than go to your nearest pet shop that sell fish and see if they will take them from you. if you do not know how to tell which ones are males and females your local store that sells them will tell you how to identify them.

Try to trade them to the pet store for credit.
