USA Members, specifically Midwest: Can you help me find a fish?

[foxgirl158]

Hey all,
I want to get a blue Platy. Can be wag, mickey mouse, or any other variety. Has anyone had any luck finding one locally? It seems to me that none of my LFS sell them.... If not, recommendations on an online store?
(edited for those who may have seen my post about losing my mickey mouse platy, I am not replacing her, I have had room for another fish for a while and I always thought the blue ones were cool. RIP Eve <3 )

A lot of pet stores will special order for you. Worth asking.

You may want to check with members of the AMA (American livebearers association) Its only $25 a year for a membership. Many members have fish which you will rarely if ever see in a LFS.

I'm located in Peoria, IL and Petco will special order fish. Petsmart typically will not.
