Welcome to the Tangled Up In Cichlids web page. Pictured below are just a few of the many beautiful species currently available. See stock list and prices for additional pictures and information on available species.
In the photo gallery section, you may view even more of my pictures.
Please click on the bar at the top of this page to view current stock list, photo gallery, etc. My facility consists of well over 10,000 gallons devoted to mostly New World cichlids. Many of you have asked me about visiting the facility. The hatchery is built on my private property, and I do not entertain walk-in business. All orders are either shipped next day air mail to your door via UPS (the most common choice for hobbyists), or shipped air cargo to your nearest airport via Newark International Airport (EWR) (the most common/cost effective choice for retail outlets and distributors whose orders consist of multiple boxes). If you have a retail store in the immediate NJ/NY/PA vicinity, I may be able to deliver your order. Please read complete shipping details at the Order Info page listed on the menu bar. Lastly, I'd like to mention that this site is to provide prospective buyers a place to view my stock list as well as many photos of the fish offered. I regret that I cannot take the time to answer inquiries I receive which are not immediately pertaining to your order. There are many forums (see links) that specialize in catfish or cichlids and there are many
knowledgeable people there to help you in the proper care of catfish and cichlid species.
