Hi Erica,

Pardon my bias, but there is a relatively nice one, with a significant
fish compoenent, at the Vancouver Aquarium in Vancouver, British
Columbia, Canada. While there are at present no Apistos on display, that
will soon change as a result of my recent collecting trip to Peru. There
are, however, Laetacara and Microgeophagus species on display.
