Hi, I have two clownfish in my tank and notice each one has some white showing in there lips likes it been chewed up from fighting over dominance, the fighting has subsided now. I’m curious if I should just let this be and monitor it or take any action?
They are eating and acting completely normal as well.
Thanks.

Mouth is damaged and likely from fighting with another clown but can also b from glass surfing which I dont believe but also moving/cleaning rocks which they often do. Based on severity, I recommend treating in a separate tank using Seachem Neoplex with air stone added
