Jody,
 
There are no Apistos in Uruguay that I know of.  From what I know, they are found WEST of Rio Uruguay that separates Uruguay and Argentina.  There are 3 decent stores in Montevideo but you're better off looking for these fish at home (if you're in North America or Europe).  Getting fish out of Uruguay is also expensive and complicated.
