welcome ... you've come to the right place as many of us have multiple tanks ourselves (I just recently took my 13 tanks down as I had to move to South Korea for a year).

as far as your cichlids go, most of the cichlid folks here wouldn't consider them oddballs at all ... those are our common friends I'm sure in the warmer months you should be able to find someone that could ship them your way with little trouble (not sure about the whole "Canadian" import rules and such but there are several Canadians on board here that might know. Another thing to try is see if one of the non-chain pet stores can special order for you. Most of the stores that I go into a lot I get to know the workers, especially the fish dept manager if there is one and they'll order me anything I want that's on their wholesale listings.

Again welcome
