I am in Florida and am going to Don Conkels so if anybody wants a fish that doesn't want to invest in the minimum $250 order let me know and I will pick them up and ship them myself. Let me know soon, I may go today.

Who is don conkels and what does he have?
 
Don Conkel is pretty much the Jeff Rapps of the southeastern US. He breeds and imports top notch cichlids. The only problem is that when he sells them he has a $250 minimum. I've always liked the fish that he sells, but there's no point for me to get them when rapps is under two hours away from NYC.
 
To get the wholesale price it's $500 minimum...... great guy though!

Dons a lot more than a Southeast Distributor. He is the world’s largest producer, importer and exporter of North and Central American cichlids. Hes discovered new species and has been educating others and exploring Central America for over 30 years. He authored 2 books (I believe it was 2), which are out of print now.

He sells more cichlids overseas than stateside but does sell all over the USA, not just the Southeast.

Id say if it werent for Don, most others wouldnt even be able to have a business doing what they do. Don was hugely responsible for the explosion of the popularity of cichlids in the hobby.
