Sorry buddy - i haven't got a clue about your side of "the pond" but yes they are all available within the hobby although not that regularly. certainly they've all been available inthe UK at one time or another.

Probably MI stands for michigan - if not, most certainly another of the US states

If anyone is going to have it, Shark Aquarium should.

http://www.cichlids.net/ You can also talk to John from Atlantis. He might be able to get some, if he doesn't have them already.
