Hey guys n gals,

Noticed over the last couple of days that my Dotty has developed some scale damage (looks like from fighting or could be from burrowing I'm not sure).

Housed with a pair of clowns and all have been coexisting perfectly well for the last four or five months!

Based on the shots, can anyone help me rule out disease? Or could it be Bristleworm stings?? (Very hard to photograph her).

Parameters are all stable.

Many thanks!!
