Looks like a really bad cut, but I'd like to see a closeup of it to be sure.

Is he a new fish or have you had him awhile?

It being perfectly circular makes me wonder if it could be an anemone sting or from a coral?

Def doesnt look like a fish bite. Looks like an anemone sting. Or where something has tried to latch on but failed...

Possible. Or is that a torch I see beneath it? Those can give a pretty nasty sting as well.
My money is on torch personally. It should heal up fine but watch for infection.
