Hi everyone, I could use some help with a mark I noticed on my Fire Goby. I can't tell if it's disease or just and injury. I had something go through my tank that killed my Euphyllia and then my fish. The last one to die was my clown fish and it looked like it had Brooklynella. The Fire Goby was the only fish to survive and its been over a week since I lost anything.

This is clearly and injury and while it should heal on its own, this is a delicate fish and at minimum, I recommend treating with ruby rally pro to prevent infection and promote healing
