Pin Tial Wrasse

[Larry the Lobster]

hello I have a pintail wrasse and it has been bullied for a few days by my flame hawk (which I gave to my friend because it was bullying all my fish). I took this video and these picture this morning of my Pin Tail. Are these missing scales I just want to check.

I also have another questions. Is it normal for my pintail to get on the flore like it is in the picture and sleep like that?

Thanks in advance for your help.

And also if it is scale damage will it harm its health and around when will it start healing

It could have scale damage but it’s tough to be sure from the photos, as they change coloration like that when they sleep.

I’m surprised a flame hawk showed aggression like that how big is the tank? How big was the flame hawk?

Damaged scales should heal on their own with proper nutrition (some vitamins such as vita chem, selcon, or zoecon soaked in high quality foods — not flakes and pellets) and pristine water quality.
