OK, why did he do that? Where did they come from?
he told me they came in from florida. and they are wild caught. i asked if they were from that dan guy and he said no. i have been bugging him to find me a pair ever since mine died. i just had no idea he had them now.

like a buddy just said... kevin is a helluva guy!!!!!

He definitely is. I wish I lived closer. He even asked my son to come work there. Austin was excited, but we live far to far away. :spoton:

I dont think thats it. Kevin is a HUGE African hobbyist.(it must be something else)

He does not do much in the way of C/S Am. Cichs. Ever notice that his African tanks are always stocked with new fish.

Now that Matt is back 3 days a week, the C & S Am. Cichs should start looking better.

everyone speaks so highly of him because he is a super nice guy! if he is mean to you, then i think there has to be a reason. i can not imagine kevin being mean to anyone! period! the guy is almost friendly to a fault.

He is constantly volunteering his time to educate kids. Not to mention he is constantly asking me and many others to go have lunch or dinner with him. Great guy, great store, great attitude. :D

I do more looking than spending most of the time. Still nice, so not about the money.

Kevin kicks ass. I have bought SA/CA cichlids, Africans and SW fish, live rock, corals, tanks, hoods, lights, food, filters, snakes, etc..lol..at APFP.

Hell, he even offered to let me take his truck to move a tank I wasn't even buying there! Yeah, I have spent thousands there over the past 5 years, but it has ALWAYS been an awesome experience.

I, also, cannot see Kevin hating anyone. The man is a good person.
