My tank levels are good, all my other fishes are perfect (including my other tang). Woke up to see my sailfin discolored. I've had this fish in my tank for a little over 2 months now. What can cause this to happen?

The photo doesn't capture it all too well. Near the end of its body, it's lightened a couple of shades.
