I've had him for a few days now in QT. He's about 2.5-3 inches. First day he took a few pieces of brine and 1 piece of mysis. I noticed he had a hard time swallowing each piece. Sometimes coughing it back up. While trying to swallow, his throat is very swollen.
2nd day I tried small pellets, which he got down to his belly. I could see the lumps. He had a hard time swallowing though.
3rd day he tries to eat but spit food out. Seems he can't get it to his belly. Throat looks swollen only when trying to swallow food. I'm feeding tiny pellets/small brine pieces. He kind of bobs his head up and down then spits food back out.
Tonight I dosed prazipro. Incase it's flukes (no visual signs) or internal parasite.
Another thing is, I have 2 Cardinal fish in same QT (been there a week longer than blenny) They were doing great, eating non stop. After Midas introduction they are showing little interest in food. 1 Cardinal refuses to eat now.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
