Electric Blue Ram Chiclid

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I appreciate it. I would enjoy getting some store credit since I plan on breeding, and would hate to waste such beautiful fish.
I just go to the store that you having credit then deal with them about getting those fish for you. They will happy order it for you to clear out your credit :) that's how I did with my LFS. If I asked then they will bring it in within 7 days and it always work out perfectly for us :)
 
That's not a huge surprise. Most LFS nowadays just stock generic stuff that's being farm-raised because it's cheaper. They may also be able to get them but there's been no demand for them. Most LFS have long lists of fish they can order from but they will only bring in stuff they know will sell. You could always ask.

Seriously though, the best way to get any quality stock is just to order it online. Jeff Rapps @ Tangled Up in Cichlids has these in stock right now and he offers very cheap shipping to PA, considering he's only in NJ.

His are also the cheapest I've seen because in my LFS they range from $25 - 40 each.

Unfortunately that's the case with one of my LFS....they can get such rare cichlids in like geophagus pellegrini and argyrostitctus.....the reason the owner never orders them is because the demand for them are so low....
 
So I contacted the vendors and I didn't seem to have any luck. Tangled only has 2 left and shipping would be about $50 to my house. Not worth the price for only 2 fish. I have contacted every LFS in my area with no luck either.
 
Sorry you're having trouble finding them, I got mine a little over a year ago for like $5 or $7. I really like him, but the fish is really small. He's like an inch and hasn't grown at all, well except for his attitude. It's funny watching him chase a geo 3Xs his size :)
