Not sure what’s going on here. Looked absolutely fine this morning but then this discoloration around the mouth, throat, and discoloration on his body as well. He was been known to try to grab food from a feeding anemone and my best guess is that he got into a little bit of a fight with one. Any other guesses? Should I be thinking about any parasites here?

From the pictures I would think it’s because of stress. It seems to be discolored because it is stressed out. Just my 2 ¢
