I got mine from Seaworld on Rt.28 in Salem, NH. They are about 2" for 49.99.(used my store credit) Still pretty steep but the cheapest I have found in the area. You can get them for cheaper online but you get raped with the shipping charges.
 
It should also be added that Electric blue dempseys are absolute pussies compared to other cichlids. Mine got taken out last night by fish that we smaller than it. This fish should honestly be sold with a warning not to put it in a tank with anything slightly aggressive. They look really nice but they are wayyy to docile. They should be kept with angels. I am pissed. 50 bucks down the toilet.

Thanks for the help BostonPatriot. I found some while in Providence for the same price except that he gave me $30 credit for the fish I gave him. But wait a minute, mine are WAY SMALLER! I have two very small BJD's!! No problem though, I like getting my fish when they are fry. Just have to raise the two of them up as fast as I can. I think I'll put them in one of my bigger tanks.

I tried 3 different ones. They all died for unknown reasons. My water was perfect and they are the only fish that I have kept that died. Thank god for store credit. I am done with them unless they somehow become more hardy. They really should not be kept with anything slightly aggressive.
 
My avitar is my electric blue.I also found out hi is semi aggressive.He runs my tank which has f/h's,gt's,chocolates,and a half fh/half texas.
