I'm from Louisiana and I was just wondering what are some good stores for cichlids out here?? Anyone from Louisiana have any good stores they shop at?
 
None. Sorry. Seriously, I've looked at Monroe, BR, Lafayette. Tropical Fish Bowl is pretty much it. I think to have good CA/SA cichlids, you need bigger tanks, and fish stores just don't want to spend on 200+ gallon tanks to display fish. Then only time I see big tanks in fish stores, they're reef tanks. Bigger mark-up on Marine fish and equipment, more people want a saltwater tank, etc. Now, if you like marine tanks and coral, the best LFS I've seen yet is Jackson Fish and Coral in Jackson, MS. Awesome acrylic tanks, very clean tanks, awesome lighting. Nothing freshwater in the whole store, though.

I heard they had a pretty good one in new Orleans
 
New Orleans has a few that are okay. Then there's the aquarium store (literally the name) on airline highway

Sometimes but if they don't they can order you pretty much anything
