Default Strange fish problems

OK so this is just strange.
I've lost my Manderine Dragonett. He was just over 2 years old and eating Mysis every day.
Then today I find one of my 3 year old Chromis has been in a scrap. It's dorsal fin is chewed up and has several laceration on it's body. It's still eating and very active but man what the heck is going on.

I don't really have anything in the tank that would cause such damage to the Chromis. Other fish include; Chevron Tang, Bi coloured Blenny, 2 other Chromis
Inverts include hermits and snails, Linkia Star and a hitch hiker long spine urchant.

Anyway will watch everyone else to mack sure the chromis doesn't have a parasite

That's such a beautiful fish! And after two years...
You must feel terrible. I hope you find out what caused this and are able to fix the problem.
