Appears to be either lymphocystis or bacterial
Assure water quality is good (ammonia-ph- salinity-nitrate) and it’s getting proper diet

Beautiful fish! I agree with vetteguy53081, lymphocystis most likely as the fin margins look pretty clean. Also agree with him on testing parameters. Failing water quality is the most common reason for otherwise healthy fish to become sick. Nutrition and stress are also big factors.

I put a green bird wrasse in the tank and that’s when it started. But the queen rules the tank! Also the queen is the only one to have it
