Red mark on Hewbie’s fin?

[AydenLincoln]

Today while staring at Hewbie I noticed a red mark on his fin! Almost like a cut but I didn’t think fish could bleed from their fins or injuries would be red? It may not be anything to worry about but I’ve never seen it before. And sorry he wouldn’t sit still! Any idea? @vetteguy53081 @Jay Hemdal

Maybe he bumped into something and it’s like a bruise. I’m not too concerned but I am wondering.

Looks like a minor injury. Any other fish in with it?

Agree on minor fin injury or fin ray issue with good water quality should clear up on its own. If it becomes more red or sore, treatment then would be Seachem Neoplex or Kanaplex

Yup the a bicolor angel and a marine betta.

Well, the betta won't be an issue, the bicolor *might* have nipped it, but that isn't something I would really expect.
