HI everyone,
I have a red scooter blennie and i know he is starving. He's barely hanging on but b/c i have finally realized this ( i think early enough) i might be able to save him. I was able to scoop him out of the tank today bc/ he is so slow and weak and i fed him in a bucket. He got about 4 good hearty pieces of brine shrimp. I plan to feed him like this for awhile to bring him back up to health.
I know its not what i am feeding him, he eats the frozen food, however the other fish are eating all the food before it ever gets to the blennie and hes such a slow eater anyways he hasnt been getting food in the main tank for awhile now.
Any advice on how to nurse him back to health and how to keep him sustained in my tank? Everything ive read said ample LR which i have plenty and i only have two other fish. I don't really get how to sustain dragonets/blennies ive killed a mandarin before the same way and now i at least figured it out before my blennie died.
Advise please.
