SAE around Ottawa?

[Dxpert]

Any ideas where I could find some Siamese algae eaters (Sae) around Ottawa?

I've got a problem with some hair algae right now... (I forgot to keep up on my fertilizers and did a big plant trim and it appeared...)

I would love to buy some young SAE's but it looks like it might be hard to breed in captivity?

La Niche sometimes has them (give them a call before going) so does Big Al's.  They don't seem to be stocked on a regular basis (I don't know about CritterJungle, haven't been there for a while).

Do make sure they are true SAE and not the similar looking Flying Fox.

A few differentiation points (thanks to Reagan88 on TPT):
Flying foxes have
- more of a coppery gold color on thier top half.
- different swimming habits. SAEs see to make thier way around the tank in a partially tail-down stance.
Crossocheilus (SAE) have
- A zig-zag uneven appearance along the upper edge of their dark body band,
- The horizontal bar extends onto and through the middle of their caudal fin
- Its dorsal surface appears cross-hatched due to the dark margins around each scale,
- The fins are almost colorless except for the aforementioned caudal ribbing.
