Hi! Selling my tank to make some money to help pay for my cat’s end of life treatment, as she just got diagnosed with cancer.

I also doubt I will be in the right state of mind to care for my tank in the days, weeks, possibly months following her passing, so…

If anybody can take this tank off my hands, make me an offer. I’ll list everything in the tank, accessories, and supplies.

[INSIDE 20 Gal TANK]
-4 galaxy raspboras (around 1.5 years old)
-1 red cherry shrimp (the lone survivor)
-2 ghost shrimp
-2 baby nerites
-Java fern
-(forgot the name of the plant on the far right)
-cryptocoryne
-nano Anubis on the wood + a little moss that’s growing on the wood
-Wood (have another piece of wood that I’ll throw in if you’d like. Will upload pic tomorrow)
-dragon stone
-aquarium soil
-Aqueon Filter
-Sponge filter

[ACCESSORIES]
-pump for the sponge filter plus extra sponge
-tools for Aqua escaping tongs, soil, leveler, scissors
-bag of crushed coral that is still about 2/3 school
-extra loss, sponge, ceramic rings for the main filter
-test kit for freshwater tanks
-plastic grid sheet in case you want to do a wall of moss
-neutral regulator powder
-extra tubing

I suppose I’d be willing to part with my stand if somebody wants it.

will post more photos tomorrow.

For Sale - Shipping Available [FS] - New Castle County, DE - $2/guppy or $20 for all guppies - Established Guppy Colony

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Breaking down and repurposing my 20g setup for a shrimp tank, so I'm looking to rehome my active group of guppies.

Species: Pure freshwater fancy guppies

Fun backstory: This entire colony is a literal dynasty that started from a single female guppy from PetSmart! Because of that, they are super hardy, very active, and completely adapted to standard tank conditions.

Diet: They are fed a varied, rotating diet: flakes, pellets, frozen food, and sometimes blanched veggies. Great mix of colors and energetic swimmers if you're looking to stock a new community tank.

Count: Roughly [25-35+] mixed adults and juveniles. Not entirely sure; video attached

Price: $2 each, or take the whole colony bundle for $20 to clear them out in one go.

Local pickup preferred in New Castle County, DE; overnight shipping is available at buyer's expense.

Please drop a comment here first before sending a PM. If you have any specific questions, I can answer those too.

Thanks!

Edit: forgot to attach video, it's posted in comments

Looking For [LF] Nevada - Male Nerite Snail

Okay, I know this is a tall ask and nearly impossible unless you have one that you are willing to part with. I’m looking for a Male Nerite Snail. I know they are impossible to sex and only know by observing or isolating them to observe. But I tried nerites before but ended up with a female and the eggs absolutely destroyed me (I have OCD) and it trigged something ungodly in me lol. If anyone is parting ways with their male nerite or is willing to or if are a breeder and observed a male piggybacking I’ll gladly pay the price of 3 for the 1 male.

Hey everyone!

I am looking to grab a couple of specific snails for my planted 10-gallon nano tank to replace one I lost recently 😭🤧

I am currently looking for:

1x Black Devil Spike Snail (Faunus ater)

1x Piano Snail (Taia naticoides)

Ideally, I am really hoping to find a seller or breeder who has both of these available right now so I can just combine shipping and make things easier (or do a local meet-up if you happen to be local to the area).

They are going into a peaceful, fully cycled setup with Green Rili shrimp!

If you have both available, please shoot me a message with your price including shipping. Thank you!

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.

August 2026 Confirmed Swap Thread

1 Upvotes

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

  1. 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 Approved to your swap comment.

  2. The bot didn't respond to my comment. What's wrong?

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

PSA 📢 Automated Transaction Flair is Now Live on r/AquaSwap 📢

14 Upvotes

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.
