Default Locating african cichlid

Hey what's up? I know there are a few people on here that build/take care of aquariums. I been searching all local shops to find a cynotilapia afra cobu "orangeback cichlid" and everytime I bring up the name no one really knows what I'm talking about. Besides online I have yet to see one around. So my question is does anyone know of a good place that could get the fish? I've already checked animal jungle with no luck. Lmk if there r suggestions.

Thread title is misleading. I thought OP was looking for a missing African Child.

I might be able to help, although I switched to from fw to sw awhile back. I had three purchased from a.j. (they can order them for you. A good reference would be to call reef chief, they don't carry fw but could most likely point you in the right direction as far as a.c breeders go.(you should also check out the green terror cichlid, great color.)

Green Terrors are gorgeous! As well as Jack Dempsey's, if your looking for awesome colorations. But yes Green Terrors are South American cichlids.
