Vertical discoloration lines on Wrasse

[RichieE46]

Hi,

Can someone help me ID these discoloration lines on my Melanurus Wrasse? Not sure if it's something I should be concerned about.

She eats like a pig and a very active swimmer. She did recently survive a carpet surf (well hardwood floor surf) about 1 week ago.

Thanks for the help!

Are the lines on both sides of the fish?

Yea both sides. I'm pretty sure she had those lines before the carpet surf. I just want to make sure I'm not overlooking something if there is something wrong

i think it's a feature, not a bug
