Hi! I am new on this list, and I am interested in Apistogramma and other Dwarf cichlid suppliers. I am living near the LA area and I am having a tough time finding anything locally. This is probably due to the fact that our water is basically liquid rock here! (I am using RO water, peat, etc). I just started my tank, with a few cardinal tetras, rummy nose tetras and some aquatic plants. I want to give it a few weeks to cycle before introducing any new fish ( I seeded the tank with some established gravel from another tank). Anyway, if anyone can be of any help, please e-mail me, or post on the list. Thanks. Also, any general comments about receiving "fish in the mail" would be appreciated, as I have never purchased fish this way this before. Happy fish keeping- Barbara Berger bberger123@aol.com
