So I have been keeping an eye on this poor guy at my LFS and have been wanting him for about 2 months. I know that to some people he may be ugly, but a majority of my fish are rescues and have something "wrong" with them. My green severum baby has one normal sized eye , and the other is about 1-2 mm. I have a red jewel that I have adoption papers from Petsmart for. He was beat up and has a upper "lip" that will always remain in two pieces. Plus he lost one of his eyes due to the fight.
Any how, getting off topic.
I rescued this guy. The owner of the store knows I tend to go for the "hard luck" ones as he put it, and even though I was on my lunch break, he bagged him up for me. I ran home and snapped a pic, and let my husband aclimate him. Supposedly he eats very well, but I will judge that on my own. lol
From what I read this will shorten his life, right? He doesn't seem uncomfortable. He seems to get around just like the others, just makes shorter strokes and swims more in the middle.
Here is a bad pic of him. I will try to get one with my real camera later and post.

I admire what you're doing
