	American FLAGFISH...Where can I get one??
kowar100 Fingerling Posts: 47 Kudos: 45 Votes: 0 Registered: 03-Sep-2005	I've tried to contact every pet store and aquarium shop in town and no one seems to carry the American Flagfish. Is this a rare find? Does anyone know where I can purchase one?? Thanks so much!

For many years I've never seen Flagfish in person, then I started seeing them around. Your LFS probably can order these fish in relatively easily; ask them if they can order them in for you. If not, there are many places online. -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.

People really like them because they are a wacky looking fish. I dont think it should be too hard for your LFS to special order them for you. -Formerly known as the Ferretfish

And it just happens to be my favorite LFS; don't know why I didn't go to them first! Thanks for your help guys. I never really knew you could request that an LFS order a particularly type of fish for you. This is great.
