      Red spot on yellow clown goby

      He seems to be fine, all other animals are ok, no signs of distress, all eating normally. Water params:
      Salinity:1.026
      pH:8.2
      Am: 0
      No2: 0
      No3: less than 5ppm

      It's a little red spot only on his one side, any one ever seen anything like this before? Google doesn't return anything, my guess is maybe he cut himself hiding in the rocks?

      Possibly on the rocks, or maybe a hermit went for him? I saw a bristle worm taste one of my fish once too. Snuck right up on him and bit him!

      That's kind of refreshing to hear, I'm sort of worried it may be a parasite but I dunno how or why he'd get one a few weeks later? Obviously I know he can but I like to believe that's not it haha

      probably a cut from the rock when he's hiding or sleeping. he'll be fine if he still eats.

      So that's the thing, I've never seen him eat.... I assume he does but I just haven't seen it.

      tough to see them eat most of the time, they pick at things, try some roe and see if he is eating. Feeding them is like feeding my ruby dragons... they seem to scavenge all day versus eating prepped foods. hopefully is heals nice, if not dip him if any funk grows in
