Skinny Midas Blenny

[lokii_37]

I have a 90g tank that has been up and running since January which was an upgrade from my 75 that was 18 months old.

Several months ago I added a few fish, one of which was a Midas Blenny, all the fish are doing well including the Blenny. What has me worried is that it appears to be getting thinner and thinner. It eats well when I feed both mysis and formula two flakes. It swims actively when it is not perched in its favorite spot.

I'm thinking it may have some sort of internal parasite but I really don't know. Can this be treated in my DT, which is a reef? I could set up a hospital tank if I need to treat it. I'm just looking for some guidance.

Not sure if its disease related or not but I would try a better food such as rods or larrys and also try nori. IME they need a good diet or they get thin.

Thanks. Ill look into getting some rods or reef frenzy. I have done nori ill give another try. Nobody really seemed interested in it except my emerald crabs.
