Hi, unfortunately my Blue Hippo Tang has an issue around his mount. I was Googling different forums and initially thought it was a discolouration from not having enough "greens", as previously it was just a white patch above his mouth . This morning it appears to have broken out into an open wound. I am hoping it is just a scratch or something (he sleeps every night behind some rocks) but am worried it is much worse (am literally distraught about this!). I have attaached photos here, and am reading different things when I go through the forums, so can't work out the exact issue. Unfortunately I don't have a quarantine tank that can be used, so hopefully there is a treatment someone can recommend.
If it helps, I've done a test recently and realised my Silica and Calcium levels are dangerously high. So it might be that it is somehow caused by stress.
Thank you in advance for any help!!
