So I got this powder blue tang a week ago for my reef tank and he looked pretty good when I first put him in the tank as well as he was nipping at all the algae on the rocks and eating the nori I had in the tank. The next day I noticed a band-aid shaped bruise on his left side where it kinda looked like he might have hit a rock. So I kept my eye on it making sure there was no fin rot, cloudy eyes, cloudy fins etc. The bruising has gone away and now there are just what seem to be open wounds that look clean on the left side. but now it looks like it may be starting on the right side because its looking very similar to the right side just minus the cuts along with some tail rot on the dorsal fin right by the tail fin. And he looks more white than powder blue (washed out) along with his face being more white than black. Ive been keeping nori sheets in the tank and hes been destroying that. I think it may be a bacterial infection but I am not too sure.

Not the greatest of pictures but its what he would let me take before he would go and hide in the rock work.
And I know I have a hair algae problem. It is a slow process but its going away.
