Urchin Sting

[ISMANU]

Ok so I know the picture is not great but does this look like my powder Blue ran into one of my spiny Urchins? If so what is the best course of action:idea:

Thanks for your help

Well, that is a hepatus tang not a powder blue. Should heal on its own. If it is you, however, that is a different matter!

Yeah I am bad with names of fish. Thanks for the info I try to stay away from the urchins as best I can I have seen pictures of what can happen to your hand.

I've been stuck by a long spine before. Hurt like hell luckily I had vinegar handy and some lugols solution. It swelled up pretty good. But by the next day all was better still tender but better. I definately don't recommend it. However as stated above the fish should heal up fine
