I've got the following for available delivery to the CCA BBQ on 8/10.
I'm not much of a photographer, so please search this site and/or Google for pics if you don't know what something is.
Thanks,

I think I'm the most comprehensive source of known-provenance "convicts" in the hobby. Most of these aren't available from Rapps...or even the guys who originally collected them. Any of them are great fish...just choose one and you'll have more in no time (or ask me and I'll recommend one)!
I'll do my best to ID pairs where possible but it's always best to start with a group...
