Hello everyone just found your forum and am quite excited to find Washingtonians here. I have a 75 gallon tank with African cichlids about 20 with some yellow lab fry on the way. Hopefully through this site I can find a few good LFS in my area.

Welcome vaquero,

There are a few LFS in your immediate area that have African Cichlids. Bridges Pet has an extensive selection of Lake Africans. I believe Jones Pet has a few as well. Aquarium CoOp I believe has a few W African species. You could head over to the E Side to Denny's Pet World in Kirkland. They have a wall of tanks dedicated to African cichlids.

Thanks I have been to bridges they are really expensive. Jones and co I have Been to also. I did just find a new shop in Conway that has a lot of cichlids and other things in tanks. Nice guy operates it. Went go aquarium co-op but he didn't have what I was looking for. Never gone to the east side have to do that.
Thanks for the suggestions I am looking for that one "special" African cichlid to put in my tank.

The fish store in Conway is interesting to say the lest lol. If you head a little further north there is another awesome fish store. It's called Clark's Feed & Seed in Bellingham.

Bridges IS very expensive!

Welcome to the FishBox!! Happy to see more cichlid enthusiasts.I think there is a little running joke about us African Cichlid keepers here. Just something that I noticed when I 1st joined. But you will without a doubt be welcomed here,and treated respectfully. Lots of cool fish keepers on this site,It keeps me opening up to the home page 1st thing everyday...

Welcome, vaquero! There are quite a bit of African cichlid hobbyists on this forum, myself included. I would almost guarantee that you will find that one "special" African on this site. I myself breed a certain variety, and I know there are others that breed them as well. So if you wait a few months you may not have to go to a LFS. :D

my sister in Spokane has some rusty Juveniles that she will send me home with when I go visit her soon. Hopefully a mating pair. I just stripped my yellow lab today and got 15 healthy fry. I have them in a ten gallon and when they get big enough, they'll be on craigslist for about three bucks a piece I think. Thanks for the welcome everyone.

if you get rustys from spokane they are probably offspring from my group. as far as i know i'm the only rusty breeder in the area. hope you like them.
