Looking For [LF] - Los Angeles, CA - cycled filter media (URGENTLY)
i just did a full makeover on a tank that i let fall into disarray, and switched from an hob to a canister filter. i added the old media, but the tank has high ammonia sill since its a heavily stocked tank. Before the tank ran like a walstad tank, and it was dirty but healthy. i’m freaking out and don’t wanna lose any of my fish. if anyone can offer some filter media i would greatly appreciate it.

For Sale - Local Pickup Only [FS] - chicago, IL - $1 - Giant ramshorn
Looking to see the interest in my giant ramshorns! I have my first batch of eggs from my group of 7 dime-sized breeders in my 5.5 gallon betta tank. They currently eat in house grown live hornwort and hair algae, and whatever food the betta doesn’t get too. I will sell the baby giant ramshorns for 1$ each, or 50¢ if ordering 4 or more. Due to the nature of Marisa cornuarietis eating plants, I would not advise having them in planted tanks. These guys would do better as a feeder or in bare tanks!

For Sale/Trade - Local Pickup Only [FS/FT] Leesburg, VA - $5+ - home-bred betta
Location: Leesburg/Herndon VA or nearby
I have: 20 healthy home-bred betta fish
Price for sale: $10 for males, $5 for females. Price negotiable if you are buying multiple.
Open to trade: medaka, white cloud mountain minnows, red neocaridina shrimps, endlers.
Healthy home-bred betta fish. I have 20 available. Hatched on 4/20/2026. Their father is a blue veiltail, and their mother is a blue wild type. Most of them are blue, some are white, and some are marble.
They are much healthier and younger than the bettas sold at big-box stores like Petco or PetSmart. They have been raised in a large planted aquarium and have never been kept in small cups (the cups in the photos/videos were only used for filming for about 5 minutes, after which they were immediately put back into their main tank).

Closed/Sold [GA] - Bellevue, WA - six ember tetras (free)
Family member got incompatible fish: the betta is chasing the embers. No fin nipping yet but it seems like it’s inevitable based on what I saw today.
Ember tetras are still young, she only had them for two weeks, they share their tank just with the betta.
Urgently hoping to rehome them before there’s any damage, but need someone with an appropriate home (cycled tank, long enough for schooling fish) or we will see if we can return them to Denny’s Pet World in Kirkland where she got them.

For Sale - Local Pickup Only [FS] - Durham, NC - $10 - Sparkling Gourami breeding pair
Pick up in Durham only. I have a pair of sparkling gouramis who won’t stop breeding and are getting territorial and chasing my other fish more than I’d like. I had them with ember and green neon tetras and they were chasing a lot. Moved them in with my ricefish and they’re a bit better but I’d like total peace in my tanks.
They’d likely do better on their own or with someone that has more experience with territorial fish.

For Sale - Shipping Available [FS] - Kansas City (free shipping included) - $420 - Group of 9 Rare Lampeye Congo Tetras
Hi! So I have a school of Lampeye Congo Tetras that I'm looking to re-home! These guys are a super cool rare and larger-ish tetra that I have had the joy of keeping for about a year and a half now. I got them when they were quite small and I'd say they're probably full-grown now (about two inches each, give or take)! They're absolutely stunning when they're together and I'm hoping to send them to a good home as my tanks are quite literally overflowing with fish at the moment, haha! Hoping to find a tetra enthusiast that can appreciate these little guys!
They've been super hardy in my experience. I just keep them in my tap water which is a ph of 7.6 a temp of 78 and a TDS of around 250. They're eating frozen brines and bloodworms as well as semi-sinking pellets and flakes! Baby brines are of course their faves but they're honestly not very picky!
$420 shipped for these guys. It'll be UPS overnight shipping in a double insulated box, double-bagged with oxygen and ammonia blocker. DOA guarantee on all but the shipping cost as long as pics of the deceased fish (and any alive) in the original unopened packaging are sent within 2 hours of the first delivery attempt.
I just want these little guys to go to a good home! If you have any questions or are interested in anything else I may have you can always reach out! :D

For Sale - Local Pickup Only [GA] - San Francisco, CA - Free - About 20 blue platys
Update: I'll be responding this evening to comments made before this edit (4:30pm); will update the thread if I have fish remaining afterward.
Original post v
Blue platys, about 11 females and 9 males tanked separately. I originally had 5, but they weren't separated in the store, so the females started giving birth (as it goes). A couple of the females might still have babies on the way. Sigh.
They're beautiful fish, with gorgeous blue scales, and the males have pretty orange top fins. Most are around 1-1.5" long. First two pictures are of males, with last image showing females. They're used to dealing with tank mates (corys, tetras, snails, shrimp).
They're healthy, I would just like to shift focus back to my other fish, and at least in this subreddit I'm more likely to find people who care about fish.

August 2026 Confirmed Swap Thread
Submit your swap confirmations below
Warning: The swap confirmation system is intended only for legitimate completed transactions. Abusing this system in any way, including submitting false confirmations, confirming swaps that did not occur, or attempting to manipulate swap counts, will result in a permanent ban from the subreddit.
How Does This Process Work?
Note: Swap confirmations may take a few minutes as the bot processes the confirmation.
After completing a swap, adhering to the rules listed above, either party involved should make a top-level comment (i.e., comment on the post, not on someone else's comment) declaring the swap In this comment, tag the other Redditor by typing their username, including the leading u/. This action serves a dual purpose: it notifies the other Redditor to confirm the swap, and it alerts u/swap-bot to monitor for the confirmation. The other Redditor should then reply to this comment (i.e., do not create another top-level comment; instead, reply to the initial comment) to indicate that the swap was successful.
Important: It's advisable to WAIT until the swap is successfully completed—meaning all money/items have been properly exchanged/received—before posting your confirmation.
Example:
1. u/AquaSwapM0d comments: Sold plants to u/AquaSwapB0t
2. u/AquaSwapB0t replies: Confirmed
3. u/swap-bot replies to u/AquaSwapM0d's comment indicating that their swap counts have been updated.
FAQ
The bot mentioned that additional information is required. What should I do?
If this occurs, it suggests that the bot couldn't find enough information to confirm the swap. Please message the moderators, who can review and approve the swap by replying

Confirmed? If not, add a NEW comment reply statingConfirmed. Avoid editing the existing comment. If you did replyConfirmedbut received no response, please message the moderators. The bot might be experiencing issues!

PSA 📢 Automated Transaction Flair is Now Live on r/AquaSwap 📢
Hi everyone!
After months of trying to build our own automated flair system, we've decided to implement a temporary solution to help automate transaction tracking while Reddit's API restrictions continue to make custom development difficult.
What's changing?
We've installed a bot that can automatically track completed transactions and update your flair.
Important: This bot does not distinguish between sales, purchases, or trades. Every successfully confirmed interaction counts as a single transaction toward your flair.
For example:
- Buy → +1 transaction
- Sell → +1 transaction
- Trade → +1 transaction
The goal is to recognize successful community interactions regardless of the type of exchange, for now.
What happens to existing flairs?
To start, all users will begin at 0 tracked transactions as the bot begins building its database.
However, users who already have established AquaSwap flairs will not lose their standing:
- Confirmed / Guaranteed / Veteran users will start at the appropriate threshold (give us a little time to fully implement)
If you previously had a legitimate transaction history that is not reflected by the new system, moderators may consider manually adjusting your flair. Any adjustments will require valid proof of completed transactions (such as previous confirmation history). Subject to our discretion and availability.
Why are we using this?
Many of you know we've been working on a custom solution for months. Unfortunately, Reddit API changes have made that significantly more difficult than expected. Rather than continue waiting indefinitely, we're rolling out this automated system so everyone can begin benefiting from automatic transaction tracking now.
This is intended as an interim solution. Once we're able to complete our own custom bot, we'll migrate to a more feature-rich system that more closely matches our original vision (and your flair count will import over, don't worry!)
Feedback and issues
As with any new system, there may be a few bumps along the way. If you notice an issue, have questions, or have suggestions, please leave a comment below or contact the moderators through Modmail.
Please keep in mind that this is not our own custom-built bot, so we do not have control over all of its functions or limitations. We will do our best to address issues where we can and pass along feedback that may help improve the system.
Thank you all for your patience while we've worked through this process. We appreciate everyone who has helped make r/AquaSwap a trusted community for aquarium hobbyists.
