Who sells Rusty cichlids?

[FishyBusiness]

I've looked everywhere for Iodotropheus Sprengerae (rusty/lavender cichlid). My LFS store does not sell them and they cannot special order them. Reading online they are supposed to be "very common". Does anyone know where I can buy them?!

Be ware that imo males can be pretty aggressive. I think here in Ohio there are only two stores that carry them and that's aquarium adventure and jacks pets

Went to a store in Delaware today that had 2 "Rusty Zebra Cichlids" I wasn't sure if they were the same thing. My original plan was to put 3-4 in with the Saulosis I will be getting, as I read they aren't too aggressive and thought it might work. The 2 had plenty of room, maybe 15-20 gallons, but the one would not leave the other alone. His fins looked like he just got back from war.

Ended up going with 3 yellow labs and a Bristlenose Pleco. Gonna add 6-9 Saulosis next week and hope it all works out.

When it comes down to rift lake fish I can assure you there is no better stock and selection than Daves, this is where nearly all my old world cichlids came from.
