Where's my Barnacle Blenny???

My barnacle blenny is no where to be found. he loves to hide in rocks, which makes it a hundred times harder to find him. This is the first time i have gone in panic after 2 days of him not coming out to eat. the first day he just sat back in his hole, then the second day, i have search my entire 20 gallon, btw no fish would be able to eat him, i have a hood, and still I can't find him. Any suggestions?

 

Have you tried a new type of food that he might want to come out for?

 

Try live brine shrimmp most fish will do back flips for them lol

 

I use formula 2 ocean nutrition frozen foods. Is that good?

 

he is more than likely in a new "favorite" spot in a hole in a rock somewhere. Probably found a spot where the food floats by the hole so he doesnt have to come out to feed. I had a couple disappear for a while and then just reappear.

The purpose of the food is to try to entice him out of his hiding place. Something differnent might bring him out!

Good luck..........i LOVE barnical blennys.

 

So what kind of food do you reccomend? And are you sure he's not just dead somewhere?

 

unfortunately no i can not, I hope he isnt dead but i think it is a good probability he is hiding.

Really any type of food that is different will help. Brine shrimp is something that they definately love and will come out for
