Foxface + Reef glue = ???

[Istrom]

Hey there,
I was gluing some coral into my 90 when the freshly applied glue on the bottom of a frag happened to touch my foxface's spines... What exactly should I do? (yes I'm aware the photo is blurry, but it gets the point across)

What's the problem with it?

I saw someplace on the Internet of a tang which went after some I guess partially cured super glue and had its mouth glued shut. Apparently this happens more often then I ever would have thought but people said hopefully and eventually the glue will work itself free because of the slime coat on the fish.

In your case I wouldn't worry to much because the glue isn't in the fish's mouth or anything. Based on what other people did I'd just wait for it to fall off.

My mate sadly had that happen glued his foxface lips completely shut and sadly it died

I've heard of that a lot before, I just wasn't sure if on a fun would be a problem
