Is this guy still breeding fish? I've emailed, called, a couple times over the years, never got anybody. Does he sell to anyone, or just stores and other breeders?

but his website's still up...

Isla Taboga Panama via Milwaukee
I went to his fish farm a little over 10years ago when I took my (then) kids to Disney World, and bought about 100 cichlids.
He also brought fish to Chicago when he spoke at one of th meetings, only a few years back.
Just before I went to Florida, I called, set it up to go to his place on my last full day, and come back with a carton of 10 species, everything from Vieja argentea, to Cineichthys pearsei, to Paraneetroplus gibbiceps. Had a great time getting shown around, he was very friendly, and his prices were great.

This is kind of how it is trying to get a hold of Rehoboth Aquatics.
