Hi all! Paranoia Norma here noticing this morning some discoloration in my royal gramma. I’m wondering if it’s from a tank bully or something else going on.
History - tank is 3 months old. All fish QT’d and prophylactic treatment 30 days CP with a ten day Metro/gen cure combo. Clean up crew came from a tank 76 days fallow. No corals at the moment and everything in tank was started dry.

I do have a maroon clown who is a little bit of a bully, but he’s not over the top and I haven’t seen him go after the RG. He eats fine I don’t notice any other physical issues other than skin. The white spots I believe are just debris as we seem to have a lot of still being kicked up in the water column from our wavemakers.

Hi,

I am not the disease guy, but to me it looks more like injury than disease. Maybe someone else can chime in. I would be watching closely for any signs of infection or change in behavior or eating.

Looks bacterial to me.
