Fantastic experience: Nice small business with some very beautiful peacock cichlids

Fantastic experience: Steve was great and easy to work with. Great communication and lots of fish to choose from. Beautifully bred fish. I plan on buying more soon

Fantastic experience: I went yesterday to get a couple of fish and the fish were even nicer in person than online. They size and color are fantastic. Steve is incredibly knowledgeable and has a first class spotless operation. No to mention a super nice guy. My only regret is not finding Lake Michigan Cichlids sooner. I'll be heading there as soon as upgrade my tank. Oh also look into his food blend. My fish went nuts over it when I fed them last night. My South American tank also loved that food blend. I highly recommend Steve and Lake Michigsn Cochilds.

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience working with Lake Michigan Cichlids. Communication was easy, fish were shipped overnight, and all arrived as described and in perfect condition.

Michigan to North Dakota, package arrived perfectly (again); fish were all healthy and stunning! So easy to work with and strongly recommend!

Fantastic experience: By far the best looking fish I’ve ever bought online. I buy a lot of my fish online, Rons, Imperial and others and I’ve always been a little disappointed in something for the price. The size and color were amazing for the price. Lots of communication, so nice to be able to see the actual fish you are buying. I’ll definitely be buying again.

Fantastic experience: Awesome experiece. Steve sent me videos of the fish he had and I sent pics back of what I wanted. He then sent me pics of the fish to make sure they were the ones I wanted. Fish arrived in perfect condition and of great quality. He also took the time out to ask how they were doing when they arrived and reached out to make sure I was happy with my purchase. After this experience I will deal with no one else because it's service like his that makes lifelong customers.
