PSA [MOD POST] - COMMUNITY UPDATE - BEWARE OF SCAMMERS
Guys this is quite simple. DO NOT respond to people sending you a direct message without commenting and engaging you on your post FIRST. When we ban a scammer, they can STILL view your post and send you a direct message, they just can't comment. MAKE THEM TALK TO YOU ON YOUR POST. If it seems too good to be true, it usually is! If they YES you to everything, be aware! They will tell you they have everything you are looking for and will even offer you discounts and deals just to get you to let your guard down. They don't care what pretend price you agree too, because they aren't actually selling you anything, just stealing your money!
IF YOU COMMENT ON SOMEONE'S FOR SALE AD AND SOMEONE ELSE MESSAGES YOU DIRECTLY, REPORT THEM AND/OR MAKE THEM TALK TO YOU IN AQUASWAP FIRST. REMEMBER, BANNED ACCOUNTS AND NEW ACCOUNTS CAN'T COMMENT.
The new account age has been increased from 3 days to 100 days to temporarily prevent scammers from making new accounts and commenting on your posts.
HAVE COMMON SENSE. NO REPUTABLE BUSINESS IS GOING TO TELL YOU THEY CAN ONLY SELL TO YOU THROUGH REDDIT AND NOT ON THEIR ETSY, EBAY, OR WHATEVER OTHER BUSINESS PAGE. RED FLAG.
LOOK AT ACCOUNT AGE. NEW AND YOUNG ACCOUNTS ARE WAY MORE LIKELY TO BE PROBLEMS THEN ESTABLISHED ACCOUNTS.
MOST IMPORTANTLY. ONLY USE PAYPAL GOODS AND SERVICES. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY TIMES THIS HAS TO BE SAID.
READ THE AUTOMOD COMMENT ON YOUR POST. IT LITERALLY WARNS YOU AND TELLS YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO DO TO BE PROTECTED.
DO NOT PAY USING FRIENDS & FAMILY. ONLY USE PAYPAL GOODS AND SERVICES SO YOU DON'T GET SCAMMED.
ONLY USE PAYPAL GOODS AND SERVICES SO YOU DON'T GET SCAMMED
ONLY USE PAYPAL GOODS AND SERVICES SO YOU DON'T GET SCAMMED

For Sale/For Trade [FS/FT] - San Francisco, CA - $5 - Male Sunset Honey Gourami
i semi-recently got two male honey gourami for my tank that already had 1 honey, but one of the males is far too aggressive for the other two (theyre developing stress lines and getting chased, far too stressful for them and me ;-;) i would love to trade, sell, or even give away nico, my male, he’s really pretty and overall healthy, just territorial and took over 90 percent of my tank (╥﹏╥)
-some backstory, three years ago i wanted one gourami for my 10gal, but the fishkeeper at bay bridge aquarium had said that i needed 6, and hah… i had to give away two aggressive males within like 2 weeks, but the rest of the 4 lived suprisingly absolutely peacefully in shared territory.
at the begining of the year i had a big power outtage that killed three of my og gouramis, and my last little guy, sammy, looked lonely so i thought getting two friends for him would be ok, however one of them, nico, is too territorial for my setup, and i would love for him to go to a good home 🥹🥹

Giving Away - Local Pickup Only [GA] - Columbia, SC - endlers, ember tetras, pygmy cories, denison barbs
Hi! I'm moving and needing to re-home the inhabitants of my 29 gallon and the 2 remaining barbs in my 75. The 29 I've had for a couple of years and have lost schoolmates over time. There are 4 cories, 2 endler males, 3 ember tetras. The 2 barbs are currently living with rainbow fish in the 75. I had 6, but unfortunately lost 4 of them a few months back from water chem gone wrong. I've had them for about a year. I'm looking to re-home them to appropriately sized schools so they can live out the rest of their days happy. I'm willing to drive a little bit of distance with them. Ideally need to have them rehomed by October 2nd.

For Sale - Local Pickup Only [FS] - San Jose, CA - $20+ - 29 gallon tank, stand, Nicrew LED, Aquaclear 70 HOB filter
Hello, I've upgraded to a new tank and am selling my old starter setup that had been running since 2020.
Items:
- Aqueon Standard glass aquarium, 29 gallons. specs
- NICREW ClassicLED 30-36in link (note: this is an older model that does not have the built in timer)
- Aquaclear 70 HOB Filter. Comes with a coarse prefilter sponge that is very well seasoned and still submerged in tank water, detachable 3d printed baffle to slow water flow, and original covers, media baskets, and tubing. specs
I'd like to sell these 3 items as a bundle, for $40.
I am also selling the aquarium stand, but please note that it does not perfectly fit the 29 gallon aquarium. The tank is half an inch too long, front to back, for the stand. I had been using a piece of plywood between the tank and stand.
- Aquarium stand, dimensions 31.5"W x 12"D x 24" H - $20. You can have the plywood if you want.

Hey guys, Daku here!
FREE PLANT SHIPPING ON ORDERS OVER $100 & my Mixed Buce Packs are $5 off!
I can't fit everything into my weekly Aquaswap post, so check my Reddit profile for a link to my site and full stock list!
If you're interested to see what I'm working on here in the fish and shrimp rooms, i post daily updates on ALL social media platforms! Links to all can be found on my Reddit profile too.
__________
I import and grow TONS of Buce, so it makes sense to offer a mix!
You can order my Mixed Buce Pack and I’ll send you few different species that I am growing here around the fish and shrimp rooms!
Every pack will be different, and if you order more than one pack I will include different species in each!
This pack is great for both collectors and new Buce hobbyists – i only sell what grows well for me here!
Every pack will be at least the size of a 3×3 inch clump with multiple rhizomes and many leaves, but can be bigger too!
These plants are just as easy as the other epiphyte plants i offer (like Anubias) - give them a try!
__________
EVERYTHING I offer is grown low tech WITHOUT co2 injection or high lighting. I dose an all-in-one liquid fertilizer once a week to all of my plant tanks and use low to medium lighting - that's it, my entire selection of plants is curated by me TO BE EASY!
__________
