Sharpie129 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Sigh... So I glued down some coral (cyano acrylate glue) and put it back in the tank to let it fully cure... Somehow my skunk cleaner shrimp managed to stick his nose where it should have been and he now has a small chunk of glue stuck on one of his front legs (its one of the white ones that's between the mouth and pincers)... He's fully mobile but has not been able to get it off but he keeps trying to pick at it... Should I interfere? He seems to still be able to eat. Shouldn't it come off in his next molt? What do I do?

the_anti_honda Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Leave him be. It should come off on his next molt. If you don't already dose Iodine I would suggest doing it now as Iodine induces molting. So pick up some lugols solution... It also helps with light adaptation for corals as well as a few other things.. Link to comment
wav3form Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Be careful dosing iodine, you can do a lot of harm quickly. Make sure you have a test kit first. Link to comment
this1fish Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 just do water changes and it should be fine. most nano's shouldn't need dosing. water changes will replenish all the used up iodine,calcium, etcc.... Link to comment
