Does anyone know if Eastern mosquito fish (gambusia holbrooki) can store sperm the way guppies do? I'd like to try selective breeding for the dalmatian trait, but don't have a source of females other than wild-caught ones, so I need to know if I have to look for juveniles or if I can get adults that aren't visibly gravid.

If your fish are already breeding in the tank, separate out some newborn or very young virgin females to use for the next generation. That way you will know what you are working with.
