Not sure where to start this thread, so why not here, where everyone can access ( Mods please note)
Since this is the season of giving, let`s have our hobby community get in the spirit - RAOK
If you would like to give a hobby related item please post here, while not a absolute requirement we strongly urge the receiver to pay it forward with something aquarium related in this thread .
I`ll start - a few stems of "Rotala Bonsai", all i ask is only take it if you have the conditions to grow it and pay it forward with something aquarium related.
Regards

cdylnicki

I would be interested in the stems please!

I have lots of assasin snails to give away or a young pair of gardneri kilis - your pick!

charlie

Stems are yours, I'll try the kilis
Come on folks, let's make this happen

I have 2 sets of 2 cories that need a good home.  Two corydora paleatus and two corydoras aenues. I think... I never see them and thats why they need a home with more cories. Free to anyone who has some of the same breeds.

Great idea Errol. I am over-run with Pseudotropheus Saulosi. If someone would like a few (pickup in Orleans) they are welcome to them.

'Tis the season.

I am looking for a basic 10gallon aquarium (20" x 10") for a rodent cage. We have the screen top.

Thanks, I'll pay it forward.

I went to look at a 10 gallon yesterday, but it was cracked.
I have sent a message to see if still available, will let you know when i hear back.

Update : I received a reply and the tank is yours.
I`ll be picking it up at some point this evening or tomorrow, will PM you.

Great initiative.

I have a group of four Synaptolaemus latofasciatus that I thought would be a great addition to one my big tank, but it turned out to be the opposite. These are quite unique fish, but they are also somewhat territorial and can be notorious fin nippers.

I am happy to pass them along to any OVAS member who wouldn't put them in a 15gal. Let me know.

If you happen to have a pound or two of marine salt, I would be very happy about that. My supply is running low.

Hi All,
Great idea!

I have a bunch of young salvini cichlids if anyone is interested. The mother of the fry is in the picture attached.

Jeff1192 I would be willing to take some saulosi off your hands, and can pick them up almost anytime.

Thanks
Jody

I have 1 female pearl gourami who needs some other pearls to hang out with. Anybody have a family she can join?

I also have 3 panda cories(not sure the sexes) and 3 peppered cories(2m1f).

I don't have fishy bags for them though so you may have to provide that.

* side note, if anybody knows where I can get blonde adfs or female threadfin rainbofish that would be great. Those I don't need for free I just can't seem to find any! :)

Awesome!! Did you just want the pearl or some cories too? I'm glad she's going to a roomier home :)

I'm still looking for 3 red cherry shrimp if anyone has them. Or any that are brightly coloured to appeal to a young child.

I just got confirmation from the original person who wanted them, so the pandas are now unavailable. Sorry!

Cool idea. Another one for the salties. I've got a small zoanthid frag and I can clip a piece of leather coral!
