I think I bought the last of his cyprichromis utinta (they were 1") and he tried to sell me his breeding group. He might be done breeding these guys. He ships well and apparently he has speaking engagements on Frontosas at various fish clubs.

There are 10 cyprichromis utinta on sale if you check Los Angeles Craigslist for cyprichromis. They are only 1 inch long though and you will have to wait to see color until they are about 2 1/2" or so -and he only wants $5.00 each. The seller is listed in Monterey Park.

There are also a couple auctions on Aquabid for some cyprichromis but 1 group consists of young fish (maybe a few weeks/month old) and the other group is made up of expensive wild adults.

1 "local" breeder is located in Ventura, CA and will not ship the cyprichromis utinta. www.girlvirgo.com

Another place that does ship will only do airport to airport through Southwest Cargo www.tomstanganyikans.com. This guy has large fish for sale but they are more expensive. Minimum order is $175.00.

Good luck, I am not sure why you are looking for a small group (of 3?) but I read that they should be kept in small schools of at least 6.
 
Sounds like you're the reason Frontosa Factory doesn't have any cyps when I called :-o

Tom was a little short with me and said to find somewhere closer--so he's off my list.

It's going to be tough for me all the way around but also because I only want males.

Part of the reason I want 3 (or 4) is because of my tank size but also because I would like to get a different species later on.

I want to start slow and not add too many new fish to the tank at once.

Thanks for the tips.

I'll take a look at cichlid lovers site but I think I've looked there before.

Why did I start a cyp tank again!? :-)

Cichlid Lovers said he sells them when he can get them

His site says he doesn't guarantee live delivery on cyps, so they're off my list now. :-(
