Where to get angelfish?


I'm looking for a few nice looking angelfish-- but i can't seem to find any place that has the colors i want. I'm interested in:

(All full-grown, no juveniles)
• Koi with lots of orange, not panda koi.
• Black/White Marble
• Half Black
• Gold
• Sunset

Any ideas on where i can find these types of angelfish in the Phoenix/Mesa/Tempe area? Pets Inc sometimes has some nice angels, but haven't seen any lately..

Aquabid always has nice ones, but i'd rather pick them out myself. And usually they only come in like 5 packs anyway.

I haven't seen many angelfish at Pets inc either. You might get lucky stopping by pet/smart/co from what I recall I used to purchase small orange koi and marbled ones back in the day. Then again, quality at these stores imho, has singnificantly dropped in the past 10 years. Goodluck in your pursuit for the Angels, I know you'll find 'em. Post here when you do.

Those are nice! It'd be nice to find something west coast but overnight shipping is always a batch.

Garrett in Colorado very, very knowledgeable breeder and a great person.
His shipping charges won't be as bad as you think.

Might look at:

http://www.angelfish.net/VBulletin/s...573#post154573

He's in Tuscon, not sure if that's close enough for you.

Also:

I lost track of them a while back so I'm not sure what they're doing now.
