Try calling the petstore or a pet store the specializes in fish and ask them if they could order some female guppies for you.

Just got to search around for them. Try finding a store that sells feeder guppies, you should be able to find females in there. But definitely quarantine them for about 2 weeks to make sure they're disease free, before adding them to your main tank. Feeder fish tend to carry more diseases, mostly because of their "living arrangements" at the pet stores. The females aren't as colorful and fancy as the males, so stores tend to not sell them. But I have seen some females that were hard to distinguish from the males, they were pretty. Good luck finding them! I know I haven't seen any for awhile.

The Petcos and Petsmarts by me all carry female Guppies. They keep them in the tank right next to the males. Try asking your local fish store to order some with their next shipment. Good luck!

All the petstores like petsmart and petco carry females as well, they only keep them in seperate tanks, and they are not as colorful as the males

ask if they have feeder guppies, if they do find the ones with the round tails and dull colors, those are females.
