Nothing happened in Rhode Island as far as I know - just have not seen this vendor active in quite a while. He used to be posting a lot.

He had some family issues I believe and from what both I and NE cichlids have heard, Nate and Rico are bringing in two more orders and then parting ways.

They posted in their africa order thread that they had some personal business so stuff would be delayed. And on another site they sponser they posted in a thread that they'll soon be parting ways. Just said they have other things in their lives pulling them in different directions(Nate+Rico are cousins and majority part of MA)
Beyond that..
Selling fish is a very competitive market. Customers want their stuff now or they'll go somewhere else and get it plus prices seem to always be going down. Plus you're dealing with live inventory and I know they had some setbacks of huge orders turning up DOA early in their business. Still good guys with me. Just saying IMO it might have been too hard to compete.
Yeah - they're great guys in my book, too. I agree with your comments about the market, and their having some DOA's. I personally have helped unpack some of their orders, and some of the boxes weren't well packed by the exporters... So anyways, they're great guys, and I wish them well, and hopefully we'll see them around again.
