Hitchhiker Eyelash Lawnmower Blenny in new tank

[karp12]

I bought 30 lbs of live fiji rock today and found a Eyelash Lawnmower Blenny in the tank. This tank has not cycled yet and I can't get him out because he keeps hiding. What should I do??

give him to me, lol just joking. leave him there until test rise up and ask some one to hold him. all they like to do is hide.

If he hides in a hole in the rock you can get him out very easily. Take a 5 gallon bucket with a little water and place it next to the tank. Take out the rock he is in and hold it in the bucket and he should wiggle out of the rock (since he won't like being out of water) into the bucket.

get the rock out and take the fish out. you need to cycle first...

Unless testing tells you otherwise, would not do any! For all I know, levels may NOT peak/rise at all provided LR were well Cured!

take him out, dont care what anyone says otherwise, if it is a new tank, cured rock or not your going to have a cycle and amonia will kill it easily
