Borleyi - Free to a good home

Hey guys.

Im not sure if im going to have any luck here.

I have a Borleyi that I need to re-home he is about 15cm+. He does not have the normal Borleyi coloration with the reddish rust colour and blue face, he is more brown and where he should be blue he is actually grey. he has a growth defect of the mouth and his bottom jaw sits a bit skew. When I got him I noticed it right away and should not have allowed him to grow up but I felt sorry for him and took care of him.

Recently he developed a severe hatred of my female Aeci and was causing problems with my tank because he would chase her relentlessly. I am particularly fond of my Acei as she eats out of my hand and because of this the Borleyi has to go. He is not aggressive and does not fight with any others fish he just hates this particular one.

I dont think any petshop will be willing to take him on with his deformities and I really dont want to euthanise him if I can avoid it. he really is a big boy and if you dont mid his little issue he will look good in a big tank. The jaw does not affect him in any way.

He is currently in a 100lt holding tank. There are currently no lights on this tank because im building a new canopy for it so this is the best pic I could muster with my cell phone while holding a torch.

If you are on the fence about taking him and would like more pics to help you decide let me know and ill see what I can do. Im based in Sandringham (Edenvale) just off the Linksfield offramp.

 

Good morning

I will gladly take him off your hands, send me your detail and adress an cell number and I will come and pick him up.
