Can you tell me what the white spot is on the bottom right of this coral? It looks like one of my clownfish may have nipped at it.

The polyps are retracted because I shot it a couple of times with a turkey baster to see if any pests flew off... None that I saw.
 
I really can't tell what is/isn't there but I clownfish don't typically nip at corals.
 
I'm sure it's some transportation damage as the frag looks like you just got it.
 
I've had it for about a month now and it's just showing up. It looks like it's healing now. I just don't know how it came about.
 
If its healing that's great, you'll never know what caused it.... If any indication that it is not continue to heal, I would bayer dip it, pests like AEFW in my experience are impossible to see on the coral and don't always easily blow off...
