Cory Cat has sand up his nose!

[P220]

As the title says, one of my 4 Cory cats managed to jam a grain of sand up his nose. Sand is Petco Black Aquarium Sand, and they've been in this tank for about a year. At the moment, he's still acting like your normal cracked out Cory, but obviously this sand in his nose cant be to good for his well-being. So is there anything that can be done to get it out?

Guess I might have to get a scalpel, catch him, and pluck it out while he's still going strong and healthy? Why are these cory's so retarded...

Goofy little things they are...I'd think trying to get it out would end up worse than just letting it go.

Easy with the scalpel, you might hurt him instead of doing good!

Anyway, well that's cory behavior right there.Really stupidly beautiful

Let's just hope it comes off naturally

I'll just keep monitoring him then, it's only been about 24hrs... but it's in there pretty good

Now about 5 days later, he managed to get it out without skipping a beat! (thought he'd never get it out by how it was jammed in there)
