Looking for some Apistos near Chicago

[Culprit]

Hey guys,
I have a 29 gallon planted aquarium with a school of about 20 cardinals and a small school of 7 Harrisons pencilfish.
Looking for a pair of Agassizii or something similar for a display tank.
I`m in the Chicago area and can`t seem to locate anything.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thx in advance for your help.

I'm just outside of Milwaukee and normally would be able to help you out but I'm tearing down the fish room to move in two weeks so I don't have much stock left right now. I do have one wild caught pair of A. baenschi ($35/pr) and a group of six wild caught A. agassizii from Peru (6/$40) available yet though. Other then that it's just odds and ends in the dwarf cichlid category right now.

Thanks for your reply.
Will you be setting up shop again in the near future ?
What do the Agassizii from Peru look like ?

I've got apistogramma cacatuoides fry all the time, but I'm out in dekalb and the parents keep eating them. Aquarium adventure in Hoffman estates occasional has apistogramma cacatuoides and agassizii though

Or there is tropi quatics in Lombard they would at least be able to order you anything. I've never been there personally but I've heard good things from other guys.

Thx for the reply Tails.
I was in Aquarium Adventures last week and they had about 10 juvie cacatuoides for $9 each.
They didn't really catch my eye or specify which type they were.
They did have some cool pencilfish
