Sick Midas Blenny

Got home from work today, noticed my midas blenny not looking to good, looking a bit lethargic, and gaunt, few speckles on his body thought that was due to rubbing on the rocks when he backs into his little cave hole, hard to explain but his underneck body area looks purpleish, he's not looking to good at all, all params are good and other fish look fine, any ideas?

 

Do you feed garlic? That is where I would start. Also when you say speckles what do you mean...

 

Kind of 1 to 2 mil dots of faded colour, not ich, i have garlic and brine shrimp will feed that

 

Snapped a pic his side looks like this and yes he is eating.

 

The blenny is now deteriorateing more he has like fungus on parts, purpley coloured skin in places and is lethargic and gaunt, i do not have a quarintine and fear he may die soon even though he is eating, sad i can't do anything for him.

 

Blennies are very hard to treat as copper is a big no no for them. Is there anyway to remove it to a hospital tank and use antibiotics?

I have no hospital tank not yet, nowhere to keep one in this small house,:-(

then i would have to catch it, as for antibiotics i am a total noob to this.

Don't think the lfs would take him in and treat him either.

 

got some better pics.




This photo he is actually lieing on his side.

 

I would watch him, make sure he is eating

he is eating but he is deteriorating, is there anything i can give him, natural remedy's?
