What is wrong with my angel? HELP!!

My angel has what looks like an abrasion on its side. It was not there this am. Could it be a sting from the long tentacle anemone? It swims real close at times, or is it something else? Thanks for your help. For some reason I am having trouble attaching a pic.

Re: What is wrong with my angel? HELP!!

A healthy fish with good nutrition and good water conditions should be able to overcome an abrasion. Keep a close eye on it and feed highly nutritious food. Only if the wound is getting worse should you consider removing the angel to a QT tank to treat with an antibiotic. All the best!

Thanks so much! I will keep a close eye on it. I work tomorrow and my dh has no idea about fish, I worry too much sometimes. Thanks again.
