| Since KMX didn't answer his phone today(haha), I got bored and wanted to look at some fish. After about 20 minutes of browsing the internet, I found a lfs internet page (http://www.aquaticwonderland.com/1.html) and decided to go to their shop. It is the HARDEST place to find because it is in a warehouse like structure BEHIND another warehouse! Even the gps on my phone couldn't tell me where to find them. Anyhoo, when I walked in, all I saw were FLOWERHORNS!!!!! How awesome!, non of them were smaller than 4inches and looked pretty decent. After navigating to the back in ooh and aahh, I spotted my favorite fish that I could never afford......BLOOD PARROT CICHLIDS!!!! They all had a deep rich dark orange color and the price was $12ea or 3 for $30. I was like WHOA, awesome fish for awesome prices. I immediately bought the 3 deepest colored ones and here they are The color of the parrots is actually much more orange but picture quality on phone is bad Other fish in the aquarium include a Pink Kissing Gourami(first fish I ever bought) and the nicest Texas Cichlid I've ever met | |

| Fish warehouses are better than stores esp if they are hard to find! We have one here & its the only place I deal w locally anymore. They know what they are talking about most of the time. And you never know what you will find!! Nice fish!!! | |

| My LFS has soo many tanks crammed into a small store front its great! They all have their specialty's too so you know you can find someone to talk with and get great advice for whatever your looking for. I drove by the place 4 times before I finally called them and they helped me find the place |

| Yeah I'm going to go back to this place but these Parrot Cichlids were the cheapest fish he had. He had two entires walls full of 4"+ flowerhorns and a large wall of only discus ranging from $20-95. He doesn't believe in cheap fish like convicts or Jack Dempseys or Oscars. This dude even had $45 betta fish that were silver and black. extremely rare fish, and lots of arowanas decent size starting at 55.
Awesome place if you like expensive fish | |

| I wish I had my 1k gallon dream tank for those already! Those are my favorite fish but I've never had a huge tank for them.... Some day it will happen....... Does the store have a website and do they ship? |

I would just go ahead and call them to make sure. They are Vietnamese so the accent might be a little heavy for you. | |
