Hi all,
I’m new to the site and semi new to reefing. I’ve always taken care of Discus and African cichlids.

I still have a fear of putting in corals but hopefully this forum will help.

I just have a bit of concern with my newly acquired Bangaii Cardinals.
One of them has a brownish discolouration on top one of the black stripes closer to the eye. They’re both eating healthy and swimming normally.

I just got them yesterday and I was thinking it was a scratch from hitting the rocks when I introduced them in the tank.

Tank Specs:
Fluval Flex Sea 32.5 Gallon
All parameters are within normal range

Welcome to the group! Doesn't look too bad to me. Any changes from yesterday?

Thanks! No changes for yesterday! They’re still eating and swimming normally! I’ll keep checking but thanks for your reply.
