Discoloration on Wrasse

[ConnorA]

Just got this Christmas wrasse early this week. He’s been in QT for a few days now and I noticed some slight discoloration on his side. Currently feeding him medicated food daily (API GC + Focus + Selcon). He’s had normal poop, swimming and eating normally. Anything to be worried about? Should I treat him with any other meds?

bonus pic of him poking his head out of the sand this morning when he woke up:

Fairly normal for wrasses to get marks on their heads and sides as they dive into the sand.

Just watch out for white filmy or red sores.

what would I treat him with if that were to happen?

Great question.
First would be high quality foods with vitamins to support the fish's immune system. Selcon, Zoecon, Vitachem have all been used for a long time to help. The newest support is Beta Glucan. It's fantastic. Link below:
Second would be treating the fish with a mild antibiotic type bath. Ruby Reef Rally for 60-90 minutes
Third would be antibiotics. Link below:
