So This Morning I woke up and did my normal check of my tank and noticed 2 of my otos were missing. I couldnt find them all day until about half an hour ago when I noticed something sticking out of my tinfoils mouth. It one of the Oto's. I looked harder around the tank and found the other oto dead in a cave. The Tinfoil is about 4 inches long and the oto is like 3/4 of an inch. Do you think the Tin Foil will be ok, or should I hope that he spits it out? Heres a pic:

I would say so, but only time will tell. best of luck
 
I think it will be fine. One of my 6-7" tinnies grabbed an entire shrimp out of my hand (meant for my lima shovelnose) and managed to somehow get almost the hole thing in its mouth (it was a big shrimp) and ate it.
 
The tin foil will probably be fine. I can't say the same about your otto.
 
Thanks for the answers everybody.

I woke up this morning to find him alive and well so everything so far is fine.
 
If it was going to affect him I would think it would have aready by now. If worse comes to worse catch him get some tweezers and pull it out.
