What is wrong with my black widow BTA? He has this spot that's torn up and discolored. All of my powerheads are fully wrapped in window dcreen mesh and the nem is nowhere near them. Is this cause for concern?

I should probably mention tank stocking.
1 blue coral banded shrimp
2 emerald crabs
10 blue leg hermit crabs
2 ocelaris clownfish
2 mandarin dragonets
1 tailspot blenny
1 Randall pistol shrimp
1 yasha goby
3 other bubble tip anemones
4 rock flower anemones
Various LPS, SPS, and soft corals.

Could any of those be to blame? The only newly added thing on that list is a nexus burst anemone. Everything else has been there for a while without the anemone showing any issues.

I’m going to guess that the clownfish swimming in the anemone is trying to clean the rock off and make a nest spot there. It is directing the nem to adjust to her needs.

Don’t worry, it will resolve itself.
