Hi, Just got my first Bristlenose yesterday and he's currently on a mission stripping the paint off one of the resin ornaments we have in the tank :/ Is this going to hurt him? Should I take the ornament straight out or will it be okay left in there? thanks.

The resin ornaments are suppose to be safe for fish. I would just take it out to be on the safe side.
