Hippo Tang got stung

[yimmy]

My hippo tang sleeps in a rock at night (its only 2in) and I have a couple birstle worms in my tank. He got stung on the right eye. He was swimming in circles but this morning he got them out by rubbing them against a rock. He now looks normal and recovered but is there a chance some side effect will take place down the road? Thanks for the help

No, he should be fine. How do you know it was a bristeworm that stung him though? Did you actually see the worm on his eye?

yeah...you could also see the tiny bristles
