watch for a local aquarium club to hold an auction, most are open to the public and a good source for fish that you don't see in stores.

those killies are sweet, are any of them annuals? I only have experience with native killi species.

@ alexx, You should be able to do a google search for any aquarium clubs in your area or ask your LFS if they know of any.
@ HN1, No breeding plans yet they are in an all male community, but when I build my "MARS" type rack I am going to start breeding. These males may eventually be entrants in a killi club show.
@ Jetajockey, No annuals, I try to stay away from those so that when I do start breeding them I don't have to wait so long to hatch the eggs.
@ Severum mama, They are great I can't wait to get more.

I am getting most of them from a member of the Michigan Killifish Association, others I found in a store.

I love killifish, especially the ones you posted! They can be very difficult to find. Let me know if you become a successful fish parent

They are great fish and the minimal tank requirements means I can collect lots of pairs when I am set up for breeding
