Are all of them generally available in aquarium stores? I know when beest says cichlids he means a selection of those available at our local Fish Doctor, which is only about a dozen types as far as I recall. Is there a great variation in those regularly kept as pets? Cichlids will be a whole new thing for us if that is the direction he chooses. Current tank has a variety of tetras, a couple of catfish and a dannio. Beginner stuff, but we do now have the hang of keeping them alive beyond the 10-day return period, so beest is dabbling with the idea of slightly more expensive and interesting fish....
