You'd rarely find any tang species in petsmart, you'll have to look for small mom/pop lfs's that either carry the fish or can special order for you without you having to pay shipping, or you can order them online yourself, but deal with the shipping.
hey greene there are a few shell dwellers but honest hardly any are very colorful and then theres the female only shellies like calvus and telmatochromis species i have even seen some brichardi gracilis go into shells but like ibr3ak said you are not going to find these at a petsmart only mom and pop shops that could maybe order some for you i would love to send you some but its too hot right now to ship fish in my opinion plus i want to bank more before i let mine go, currently i am breeding shell dwellers are n. multifasciatus n. brevis here is some photos of my current shell dwellers..

WOWOWOWOW - what type are the guys in the first and second photos?
I would love some of them. We are having a cool spell...when do you think your stock would be up for shipping?
b.greene if you like calvus, look for altolamprologus compressiceps shelldwellers, they resemble calvus and only reach half the size of a calvus. You can technically use the 10g as a grow out for a calvus since they grow pretty slow, but then you'd need to upgrade, with altos you just might house 1 with other shellies (not alot, maybe a small group of 1 specie) in the 10.
hey greene i would say by fall i could hook you up on some,the first one is a yellow neolamprologus mustax and the second one is a black calvus juvie the 3rd 4th are neolamp multi's, the 5th is a neolamp brevis, the 6th is neolamp multi's, the 7th is a telmatochromis dhonti, 8th neolamp brevis, the only thing i am producing right now is n. multi's and n. brevis and here soon some n. lelupi's, i also have some yellow compressiceps tangies as well along with brichardi, frontosa's and in another tank neon jewels west african wow i guess you could say i like african cichlids aye..
thanks ibr3ak yeah i got them mixed up i do have 3 yellow A. compressiceps and i have 2 black juvie calvus i know the female compress they shell dwell but not the male i am not a hundred percent but doesnt the calvus female shell dwell when breeding later buddy
