I kno pics arent great but hes friggin fast lol. Whitish raised area on one side of my foxface. Have had him for maybe 2 weeks in QT. QT is a 20gal with a hob filter rated for 50gal and a sponge power filter. In hob filter there are 2 sponge filters and "bio media". Parameters are all good. Foxface is active as heck albeit a bit shy. He eats like a hog and attacks nori like a lion. Theres maybe some abrasions on side around bump but hard to get a good look as hes just to fast. Hes to favorite spots are wither in a clay pot or up between glass and pot. Hes currently in copper prophylacticly. Should i be concerned? Last pic is definitely best. I have NOT done fresh water dip yet.

I am struggling to see much in those pics.
I can see a small bump, but in the pics it appears to be the same color as the fish.
What type of copper are you using? What test kit? What is your Cu level?

+1 I'm struggling to see anything beyond it being a bump. You said there's possible abrasions? Are there scratches or something? Is the area around the bump discolored?

I can't see much either. Try to get some better photos of the area you are concerned about.
