June 29, 2025: Freshwater Collecting Trip

If you haven't done so yet, please sign up if you plan to join us. Deadline to sign up is Wednesday, June 25, 2025.

It will be a great day of fun in the sun potentially seeing (and maybe collecting!) rainbow, fantail, and green side darters, rosyside and blacknose dace, and numerous shiners.

Please be sure to purchase your license before the collecting trip. You will need the Non-Tidal Freshwater license regardless if you plan to collect or take fish home.

Downsizing from the hobby

I am downsizing from the hobby. My priorities need to be focused on my aging mom and other family members and unfortunately my aquariums now come last. I am hoping that someone may want to take over the care of my fish as well as the aquariums.
I have the following:
65 Gallon tank and stand - FX4; UV sterilizer; heater, sponge filter and light. FISH inside - Female Chocolate Cichlid; 4 yo-yos; 2 silver dollars; long fin pleco.
120 Gallon tank and stand - FX4; UV sterilizer; heater; sponge filter and light. FISH inside - TWO Red Devils - orange one female - white and orange - male. *These fish are large. Two large common plecos.
150 gallon tank and stand - FX6; UV sterilizers; heaters, sponge filters and light. FISH inside - 1 Male Jaguar (18"); 2 Extra Large Tinfoil Barbs; 3 Silver Dollars (2 are bonded); Extra large Common Pleco.

Ideally fish should go with tanks. If someone wants the tanks, the fish must go first.

I cannot move these for you, so arrangements for transportation is on you. Most weekends are best for transfer of ownership.

I am not setting a price, but I hope that who ever is serious can message me a reasonable offer.

I do have videos of the fish if you ask. This forum is not allowing me to post them.

I have an Eheim Professionel 3 (probably 350) that is not doing well, so I am giving it away for parts. I am only keeping the bio media. Pick-up can be in Gaithersburg/Damascus or maybe in Germantown.
