sick fish

I had a blenny that got a white circle on his side with what looked like a small hole in the center of it. I figured he was a gonner. but I moved him to a smaller tank and its been 3 weeks. the white circle is now just a light brown discoloration and there does not seem to be a hole in the middle anymore. there is definitely still a mark or scar though.

any thoughts on what it was
