Blenny ate Reef Glue

If you can catch the blenny (ha!), you can use some clove oil to sedate the little guy (a couple drops in an icecream bucket is plenty) then use some tweezers to extract the chunk of glue.

That has to an absolute last resort but I may need to do it. This happened Tuesday and he's been moping around since then. Catching him shouldn't be too hard he eats out of my hand when he's eating. Have you sedated fish like that before?

Yup, I've cut off a lotta fish lice, tumors and ground down a lot of beaks over the years...
