I noticed my Indigo dottyback has a chunk missing from the bottom center. I noticed it a few weeks ago and it was red and looked like it was beaten up by my super nice clowns or a large crab got it. It seems like it is an injury more than a disease.

It ate, swam and acted totally normal and it is all white and looks like it is healing but just curious what others think happened or what it could be?

Clowns would be my prime suspect and isolation with a divider or a different tank will offer best chance for healing
