Wrasse fin rot/damage

[tenurepro]

Hi all
I have a pintail fairy wrasse that has been in my tank for about a year now. He was qt’ed in copper and had two rounds of api’s general cure. He eats like a pig and is generally fat. The past couple of week, his tail fin and a bit of his dorsal fin look a bit damaged... not sure if this is a disease or tank mate is picking on him... I don’t generally observe aggression, but I know the Royal gramma does like to dart at the wrasses if they get too near...
Thoughts?
Thanks!

Something is picking on him...

Could be a bit of both, aggression and very slight infection as the fish's immune system tries to repair the damage.
Consider adding some Beta Glucan to the fish's diet. It tremendously helps the fish's immune system to fight disease and infections. Heck, I even take it daily and my fish too.
Food + Beta Glucan + Focus (binder) + a few drops of RO water or tank water. The mix will be good in the fridge for a few days. Info on Beta Glucan below:

Wouldn’t it be great if there were one thing that we could give any sick fish that could help it? Aquarists dream of a “magic bullet” that could be used as a treatment for a plethora of problems.

Health food stores have it, but I get the particular brand from Amazon. There's quite a variety of BG out there. The one I get is derived from algaes:
