24 gallon, I've had a frog fish in for a couple years. Went to feed him the other day and he refused which is weird. Touched the water and noticed it was warm. Somehow the cobalt heater was set to 90*, I have no idea how that could have happened.

Got the tank cooled down overnight and the frog fish is still alive and looks fine. Went to feed him today and he used his lure like he was hungry but when he went to eat its like he cant do the big inhale he usually does. He seems to open his mouth and try a few times but it wont work.

Could he have brian or neurological damage from the heat?

Not sure what to do...
