Thanks for the offer but no thanks. I can get them here. The more rare ones like the calvus cichlids are in Calgary. The main point of the trip is Discus. Also a bigger tank. Maybe some new filters i wiped open a big also book lastnight and seen some pretty cool stuff.

Go to Riverfront. They have many South American cichlids.
Good variety of discuss as well.

Hey there DOO-E i have found that in Manitoba theyhave most of the larger Cichlids here. IMO that is why i switched to SW there were some Cichlids i coulsn't get so i lost interest in the hobby .

P.S Hope you find the ones you want

Hey Doo-e, back when I had my african tanks I used to requent the Petlands on Macleod Tr. & 90th Ave, as well as the Shaughnessy location.
Their fish manager (Kirsta) is crazy about cichlids :biggrin: and they do have quite a selection for reasonable prices. Beware of the "mixed" cichlid clearance tanks though, thats where they keep the inbread mutants :mad: If there is any specific type you want to get as them to place it on their next order and they will aquire them for you. Good Luck!

Danny i dont want to place an order because if i Order X amount of fish they will only order X amount of fish. I would like a broader selection. I have already talked to a few stores about it. Gold has them so i will go from their. But for south americans i would like to know. Some firends told me they will take me to riverfront. I guess our LFS used to do coral orders from their and had hardly and die off. They said that they bought some corals from there and none have died.
