Re- home my yoyo's?

Hi
I was wondering if anyone could help me?

I am reluctantly looking to rehome 2 yoyo's (1 is almost 3yrs old and the other is about 1.5 yrs old i think). There has been too much aggression since a reintroduction of a young male.

I had 3 yoyo's - moved them to a bigger tank and 1 disappeared! Nowhere to be found, just gone!

I then stuck with just the 2 and monitored their behaviour. They seemed okay, but 1 was always being chased by the other. No aggression as such, just tedious for the 1.

To ease the problem my boyfriend kindly offered to take the 1 and has had him up til a few weeks ago when he returned him (because he was worried for him since his new 'pets' ,Blue Lobsters, were introduced to his tank!).

There has been a turn around in behaviour, a lot of tussles and barging for certain territories. These have subsided now, and the 1 that was previously chased is now the 'chaser'! Unfortunately it isnt the best scenario for the 2 of them and I would prefer to see them rehomed (be it reluctantly :cry: )

Does anyone know an aquarium near Crickhowell, Powys NP8 1DX UK??

Or is there anyone out there who can help??

Grateful for any advise.

We would gladly rehome them for you at Maidenhead Aquatics @ Peterborough, but I suspect that this will be too much of a journey for you.

Thank you very much Emma....yes it would be a bit of a journey, but I have always wanted to visit the shop. (I would worry that id deliver but not necessarily come away empty handed either!! :lol: )

Do you open on sundays??

Hi Kaz,

Yes we do open on Sundays (10:30am - 4:30pm), but to be honest it is our busiest day of the week and sometimes so manic you can't get down the aisles to see everything properly. :? Also with it being so busy, it is then difficult to spend as much time acclimatising fish bought in as we would like to. So normally we advise people to bring fish in on a weekday, and if this isn't possible, a Saturday morning (before 11:30am) is best. :wink:
