Is your heater in your tank?

it kind of looks like it got burned - but hard to tell from the pictures. They’re a little blurry

My heater isn't in the tank it's in the overflow

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

Bluespot jawfish are really, really delicate unless kept at lower temperatures. In fact, they have their own disease named after them "BSJD". The trouble is that this issue mimics that of what happens when a jawfish gets attacked by another one. The causative agent for this disease is either Brooklynella or Uronema, but I've never heard of it being successfully treated...sorry!

thats a very shallow sandbed for 4 jawfish, they have nowhere to hide.
