Here's a video and a photo. in QT for 1 week and saw this white circle scar. QT with longnose hawk, lawnmower, blue goby, and yasha goby. Not sure what is causing this scar. Any advice is appreciated.

Could have gotten bitten by the LN hawk or the lawnmower. It doesn't look serious, but keep an eye on it for reddening, turning white or enlarging.

This species is prone to gill flukes, so you'll want to give it a comprehensive quarantine protocol.

thx u jay ill keep an eye. for gill fluke, is prazi pro ok? That's what I have been using for QT.

Yes - Prazipro works pretty well. Dose it 2x, 8 days apart, with good aeration.

Our full quarantine protocol is the first page on this thread:
