I have a tomato clown. On day one when I put him in, he got bullied so much I had to put him in a box. He is healing well, but he is fully blind. He can not even find food unless it touches him. How can I help him?

Option 1: try to feed it directly (though if it truly can't see I don't know how it's understanding what it's eating or where in the water to chomp at to eat it)
Option 2: Mercy killing

Wait.... I once had a Yellow that went blind bc I overdosed Iodine. I had to feed him by hand but soaked his food in Boyd VitaChem.
His sight was restored in 2-3 weeks, I believe, bc of the high quality vitamins I used to soak his food with.
I then named him Apostle Paul for being blind but getting his sight back.

I don’t know how he knows what he’s eating, but he just chomps randomly when something touches under his mouth until he gets food

That's crazy... I'd find it hard enough being blind moving in essentially 2 dimensional space, let alone floating around/swimming in 3 dimensional space... and trying to eat that way? forget about it! lol
