Scooter blenny not doing well....

[Safi131183]

Hi all

I have a 90 litre tank with two clowns, a midas blenny, purple firefish and a male and female scooter blenny. In the last two days we have noticed the male scooter just isn't moving as much as normal. Everything is fine water wise, I ad copepods every week as well as living brineshrimp. The female is fine and is moving as much as she always does but he hasnt. Why could this be happening, he doesn't look ill but just looks like he has given up on life :-(

Any advice at all as to what might be happening?

Your tank is much too small to support even one scooter blenny much less two. Even adding copepods weekly isn't going to be enough to keep them alive. For the sake of the fish's health I suggest rehoming them to someone with a large (90g plus) tank before they starve to death.

Put them in a container that's packed with copepods until you can find them a new home.
Also, adult brine shrimp are not nutritious unless gut-loaded, just in case you aren't aware.
