Blue tang injury...



He got stuck to a pump a few days ago and it didn't lose much color but now 3 days later it looks like this? Is my Fish OK and what should I do with him? Do I need to worry about an infection?

Whoa! If it's still behaving the same way, still eating, I wouldn't worry about it. It should grow back. How much though, I'm not sure. Might have a scare there.

If he's acting fine and not being picked at, I'd leave him where he is, make sure the water is spot on, and stuff him full of garlic soaked nori.
