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.

Tanks for the taking

Greetings,

I am hastily emptying my walkout basement for construction (origin story: a water change gone wrong many years ago! Lol) and need to move some tanks asap. I’ve already moved the fish.

- 90-gal.
- 120-gal. (2’ x 4’ footprint)
- 75-gal
- 29-gal.

(There’s also an Oceanic 135, if anyone is that brave . . . so heavy.)

The larger ones all have stands of some sort (one metal, one purchased, one constructed).

Also, a bit of rock (some purchased, some collected), fwiw.

I’m off Montrose Road (exit 4 on 270) in Rockville. Looking at a Sunday-Tuesday a.m. timeframe.

Thanks,
Steve

60g Aquarium

I have a 60g Aquarium 48in W, 24in H and 12in D that I recently cleaned out and available for pickup in Gaithersburg MD. One can have it for free, have a couple of Eheim canister filters too.
Please text me in case you need to see pics and I will post them.

Thanks
Tony

Tell me about Pelvicachromis kribensis

For anyone in the market, Londontowne has a ton of WC P. kribensis dehane and P. taeniatus(?) right now. I got myself a pair of the former. I overheard Andrew talking about them at the October meeting but I wasn't sure of his tag on here/didn't want to DM the wrong Andrew by accident. That aside, I have a general idea of their care but just want to hear from other people to make sure I'm doing it right + get tips on how to be more successful with breeding them. I've had kribs before but I'm a inherently more cautious with these since they're WC. They weren't too colored up at the store but behaviorally they were fine at 7.5-7.8 pH so that eases my anxiety a bit.

Looking for some air pump

would love to get 3-5 used air pump for my new tank

WTB feeders

Hi,

I'm mainly looking for guppy and endler culls to resupply my feeder fish colony. Will consider other fish that you don't mind becoming food.
