I shut the MP10 off to feed and didn't realize that my bicolor blenny was still inside the wetside munching on algae and after feeding was over I turned on the MP10 and a liveless blenny shot out of it. RIP homie.
So I just killed my Blenny.

Wow... rough way to go. Hope it does not mess anything up like pars.
Well within about 20 seconds of me watching him to see if he would start swimming around again, 2 hermits and a nassaurius started picking at him and I scooped him out and gave him a proper burial... down the toilet

i know that the mp40 have a standby mode where the pump still run but at a very low speed.. doesn't the mp10 have that as well?

OMG the same thing happen to me but my algae blenny survived lol. I shut my mp40w as I was doing a water change and I didn't look at the wet side to see if it was clear, when i turned it back on I got an obstruction error. Looked in the propeller I see uncle benny lifeless, so I took him out and placed him on the frag rack he wasn't moving at all so I gave him 5 mins if he don't move he was going straight to the toilet turned next thing u know he just started swimming around like nothing happened lol Crazy fish
That really sucks. As soon as I put my rkII on standby my goby goes right in there and starts tearing apart the algae. I have a sticker right next to my rkII standby button that says rompope, the name of my hectors goby.
I started just turning it off when I got the upgraded MP10 blender controller because of the same reason....
Hopefully my experience will help others in the future!
