Your best bet would be to get him into a quarantine tank, away from whoever is beating him up, to heal and start treating with antibiotics to keep him from getting an infection on the wounded parts
 
No open wounds just has like lump on his side and his tail is torn like his fins not the actual tail what kinds of antibiotics or like garlic drops
 
Either it or the lawnmower blenny will need to be removed. While they occupy different niches, and in many cases cohabitate fine, some lawnmowers are more aggressive than others. And aggression rarely gets better once it starts.
 
Sadly my fish died it's weird that the lawnmower got aggressive all of a sudden
