Laetacara availability

[ptweet]

Hi All,
I'm a newbie to the board (have been lurking for quite sometime though...)!

Was wondering about the availability in the US for Laetacara sp. Buckelkopf and Laetacara sp. Orange fin (aka Orangeflossen -not flavilabris!)? I've seen references to Buckelkopf from US sources but never any for sale. For Orangeflossen I've seen European references but that's it.

Anyone know if anyone out there has any of either?

Thanks,
-Peter.

I'd say check aquabid.com. There are a lot of good dealers there with high quality product. A couple of people on here also sell. FishFarm USA, aka Ken Davis, might. I've had good dealing with him.

Thanks for the response Ron,
I watch aquabid religiously and haven't seen anything so far -was thinking about contacting Ken (I've ordered from him too) to see if I could special order them through him but have been hesitant because so far I haven't had too much luck getting any importers to special order anything for me...but its worth a try.

I may try putting a want ad in the ACA Trading Post too...

ptweet,

WELCOME TO THE FORUM

Buckolkopf is far more readily available, here in the states, than Orange-fin (which is sometimes on German lists. I haven't seen either for awhile, but will keep my eyes open.
