Just noticed this today and also have been noticing flinching and odd swimming behaviors as of late. I also noticed he is getting a little pale, but still eats like a pig though

Looks like the end result of an injury
Regarding what you called flinching, if you’re seeing twitching, shaking, yawning behavior as well as sudden darting, could be flukes.
Keep an eye on black dot. What foods are you feeding and what is your ammonia and nitrate level?

i see shaking sometimes and weird movements like flinching. No darting or no yawning though. i’ll probably dose the tank with prazi today.

food for sure isn’t the issue. I feed Spin Mysis Spin Brine and Mysis. All food is soaked in Hufa /amino acids and fish oil, selcon, tad bit of garlic, and a dash of vitachem. soaked for 20 mins. and 2-3 sheets of nori per day with a dash of garlic and selcon

ill test my water right now
