Clownfish Question

Noticed my clownfish (larger of 2) has white and ragged patch between anal fin and tail. Smaller clownfish has somewhat beat up dorsal fin in front. Sorry hard to see in the pictures. Wondering if this is related to a parasite/disease or just from them fighting and rubbing on rocks. They don’t fight often but once in a while they pick on each other.

I will try to help you out, but I can’t see any pictures of blue. Your lights are blue.
 
Thank you all. I will get better pictures when I get home. Trying to figure out if it’s just from rubbing on the LR. She still has quite the appetite.
 
Any thoughts on best treatment option. Just moved everything to a new tank. Might be hard to get her out of the display but also don't want to impact the reef. Any possibility this could heal on its own?

catch in a fish trap put in QT once that is done go to @Humblefish for best reccomended treatment. i’m not 100% sure if it is just a bacterial infection. I recommended a 2nd opinion

If they are both swimming and acting normal and it's hard to get them out of the tank you could try soaking your food in garlic or another supplement to boost their immune system. I know this is iffy and not always beneficial but it's better than nothing if they're stuck in the tank.
 
You should food TDO pellets. For fish health. I never had fish Health issues. None of my clowns. Because that’s what I feed for Health and colouration.


Try this stuff it will help
