I've owned a couple of "freshwater" morays (Gymnothorax Tile) for about 3 years in a Brackish tank, but the largest of the two (Boris) has now reached maturity and started picking on the smaller one (scampi) to show dominance, and because of this I feel its fairest to find the smaller one a new home, (the smaller one rather then the largest as it's less agressive and less likley to cause any trouble in a new tank).
I'm not too sure on the best way of re-homing it, so I thought I'd try on here, especially as theyre not the most popular of fish to keep, and can only be kept with fish alot larger then them and in a brackish (full marine at adulthood) tank.
It should reach about 2 foot, I don't want to give it to a aquatic shop as they often sell them as freshwater fish, which they're not and usually don't recieve the care they need.
If I could afford to buy him his own tank I would, but as I can't Im hoping I'll find someone who can take him on; I live in Oxford.
If anyone has any suggestions or is interested it'll be much appreciated :)

thanks
Jenni
