Two or three weeks ago my starry blennie disappeared. He was always visible, then one day, gone. I figured he died after 3 good years.
Today I cleaned my skimmer. I put it in a bucket in the shower and hosed it down with luke warm water (I think, I wasn't paying attention to temperature). I then disassembled the skimmer, hosed it down some more while it was in bucked, cleaned it up and poured the dirty water down shower drain and saw blennie flopping around ! He must have been in skimmer all along. I rushed to aquarium and dropped him in , me in a panic.
He swam under a rock where he is now sitting.
I am concerned the rapid temperature and salinity change may have killed him, damaged internal organs, etc. If he's alive in a week does that mean he's ok ? Two weeks ? Thoughts...
Very worried and feeling horrible....:fun5::hmm1:
