Maybe the clowns bit him?

Some clowns tend to be biters so it might have nipped him

Maybe but its kinda in the back middle of his dorsal fin. Kind of a weird spot. Everything in the tanks been pretty happy and healthy.

Tough to see it clearly. It isn’t one of the common contagious disease issues, but it doesn’t look like a rip in the fin either.
Did it show up suddenly? If it isn’t getting larger, I would just watch it for now.

Hard to know... My tomini is a spazz too though and scrapes himself on the rocks every once in a while, so definitely could be that.

Hes an absolute psychopath. Constantly full sprint into rock crevasses and dive bombing my fox face so who knows haha.
