Looking for a VERY special home

Unfortunately due to my 'aggressive loach tank' deciding to collapse on me literally, a very difficult decision has been made and I have some very special fish looking for a home who managed to survive. The tank is unable to be repaired and their little 4ft is getting on everyone’s nerves-they really need more space.

Yasuhikotakia morleti
1
Syncrossus helodes
2
Schistura sp (very very aggressive)
4
Yasuhikotakia modesta

Syncrossus beauforti
Anyone who has a good knowledge of these species and are able to give these delightful guys a home please let me know

Hi Graeme,
You wouldn't by any chance be going to Emma's at any stage? - going to take a trip there after the 17th when exams are over or on the other hand, I wouldn't mind driving them somewere that would be suitable to you???

Hi Ashleigh.
I'm not driving down to Emma's until around April/May time. But I'm driving to Wigan (Pier Aquatics) at the end of this month. I'm swapping some fish with Mick and Andy. We could meet up? I think Mick or Andy might take some off your hands also.
Do you know which
Schistura species they are?
Graeme.

Hi Graeme,
Wigan sounds good

If you let me know what date Il work out something and bring them with me. No idea what
Schistura sp they are (I had a post months back and no one could id them for sure), but they are very aggressive. Il post up some pic's in a second.

These guys are about 2.5-3 yrs old (well thats as long as I have had them) and about 3inches at the most.
As 'babys' when I first got them

Hi Ashleigh.
Would Saturday 19th be okay for the exchange? I'll PM you with further details.
They look very nice! I'll take them!

PS: I'll take all the loaches apart from the Y Modesta's. I already have too many of them.

Aw, Ashleigh, sorry to hear you didn't find a solution to the collapsed Grrrr tank.

However, if Graeme takes most of your loaches, you can rest assured they'll be going to a great home.

Yea it just seemed fairer for them to go to a larger tank. I was kinda hopeing Graeme would come along, but we are all sorted
