I noticed my fox has a hole in his fin. Any ideas what might've happened? Coral sting? Battle with another fish? My tang maybe?

Everything else looks good on him. Eating well too

I would just watch it, to be sure an infection doesnt develope. Using an antiseptic like "rally" right now would ensure no chance of bacterial infection to develope. What are you going to do about your CBS?
 
Someone recently nipped the tail of my fire fish. Just a little notch. Sometimes he pushes to get food ahead of the goby and wrasse. Could be a bite from something else though. Im dosing today as a theraputic bath for him. It hasnt negatively effected anything in my reef, and actually improved overall tank health with one period of use. Just remove carbon.

Im also currently using rally in my FW cichlid tank to treat minor external bacterial infection on fins and scales. Interested in its effectiveness. FW requires 2X more rally though.

SW = 1 ounce per 10 gallons
FW = 1 ounce per 5 gallons (unless Ph of FW is 8+)

I keep my cichlids in 7.8 and I dosed 1 ounce per 7.5 gallons.
