Thanks HUKIT Im counting on him being a D-bag brute some day. So far the dithers are there and all accounted for but he is trying to catch them now and then.

LOL The females seem hard to find. When I got him all they had were males

Aquarium Adventure had them last week, they were around 3-4" but they wanted $40 each. That's a little steep in my opinion.

$40.00!!!!!!!! I paid $3.99 for him.

I know, it's a nice to go look but they're prices are ridiculous. I've bought wild caught fish on the CARES list cheaper than that.

 

[mikem691]

I stop in Hoffman and Bolingbrook when ever I'm working around them but I have never purchased anything there

Yep It was the only time I have ever seen them there. They have JD's all the time but that one time they had firemouths also. 1/2 of my fish that I get there are from people that sell off their equipment to them with the fish. The most recent severum I got came in with a 9" JD and about 10" Oscar that were in a 55.

If you don't mind, Let me know if they ever get some malcupinnis Elliott cichlids in. I've been looking for some for a while. I know Hukit has some, just waiting for them spawn. Thanks

I was at aquarium adventure today and saw one carpintis left in a aquarium at about $8. Couldn't tell if it was a female or male but looked very nice.
