I have a borbonian anthias and a lyretal anthias which developed a gash on their bellies. It seems like it might’ve gotten it from the rock work but the fact that it developed on both fish seems strange. Is it possible Th at it’s some sort of parasite or flatworm(flukes).
Thanks in advance
 
**not really the belly more the side of the fish.
 
How long have you had the fish?
Have you added any new fish to the tank in the last 30 days or so?
 
The only fish I added to the system in the past 30 days were two black mollies that I was using to see if there was any ich in the system.
 
look up uronema that looks like it to me
It does look like uronema but the thing is that I’ve had a chromis in the tank since the beginning and it doesn’t seem to have any signs of uronema. I find that strange since they are the ones that are most prone to it.
