The focus is a bit soft, but it looks like a strike injury. If the fish is acting fine in other respects, I’d just watch it for now.

Agree on injury which should heal on its own but monitor it for healing and not soreness. What other fish are in your tank?

I have 1 scopas tang, 1 foxface, and 1 blue hippo tang, 1 powder blue Tang, I have these 4 fishes for almost 2 years.


they all look healthy to me. Hopefully, it's an injury spot, not something disease.


Thank You!

Candidates for injury would be powder blue or Scopas tang
