Today I noticed a white marking, maybe small chunk taken off my tailspot. Curious what it looks like to you guys? He's eating and acting normal and is still his personalble self. Hoping it's ok since it's my favorite fish in this tank. I haven't noticed any major bullying besides my Tomini chases him around a little, but usually just during feeding. Maybe he took a chunk out of him or maybe the tailspot rubbed itself to cause this? Thank you

As these fish dive-bomb into rocks and are skittish, these looks to be a scrape injury which should heal on its own but keep an eye on area for becoming red or sore which would require treatment in a separate tank using seachem Neoplex
