I was wondering if anyone knew of a reputable cite to order African Cichlids? The stores in my area don't offer a very wide selection, and have recently doubled their prices. I figure, if I have to pay that much, I might as well get what I want. I've noticed several cites that will mail you cichlids, I just don't know which ones are the best.:D

I like Froogle for checking pricing.
How do these prices look?

Once you narrow it down to a couple vendors, then do some Googling for reputation and feedback about them.

Good answer, Rick! Froogle is really great.

I'm curious though... how are they mailed? They're alive right? I guess live animals can go through the mail, probably as live cargo or something, but it just seems weird to me haha.

I don't know where you're located at, but here are a couple of sites that I know are really good - maybe they ship to your area.

This is a really great site - a little confusing to navigate at first, but you'll get the hang of it. I only know of them doing phone orders so you actually talk to a person.

This site is really good for African Cichlids from Lake Malawi and Lake Tanganyika in East Africa. Much easier site to navigate and they have really good prices.
