This wound of some kind appeared on my royal gramma. It’s on his side where the yellow meats the purple. Doesn’t look like Ick to me but hoping someone could help identify.

Pictures taken under white light are really needed, perhaps a short video as well.

Here is a link to helpful background information that is also important to know:


From what I can see, and depending on the fish's history, it might be Uronema.

Could that be the result of a fight?
I’m not sure but I don’t believe so, other tank mates are 2 clowns, and a blenny. I know clowns can be aggressive but have had this guy for a couple weeks and haven’t seen any aggression from other fish.

If you can get a pic under just white and one FTS, might help us further help you.
Mine guards his/her territory at all times.

I’ve attached a quick video I took yesterday.
Sorry - I couldn't get your video to play on my phone or on my office computer. Linking to a Youtube video works better for most folks.
