My new melanurus wrasse just came out of hiding today and I noticed it possibly “flashing” against a rock. When it turn I noticed it had what might be cuts on its body, but I didn’t know if it would still attempt to brush the rock if it was truly a cut.

My lfs kept him for 4 weeks and states that they use 3.0 copper. I know that’s not a fix-all solution, but just to keep that in mind. I didn’t know if I should take action, and what type, or just feed generously and watch.

Also, the tank that he was in at the lfs had crushed coral as a substrate and I didn’t know if it might’ve scratched itself there. I didn’t really pay much attention to that to be honest and I know I should have.
