Black Spot ID????

I have a spot on my Scopas Tang that showed up tonight. He was fine this morning and afternoon and then I found this.....

 

and another with flash.....

 

Any help is greatly appreciated on this. My kitties decided they would turn the power supply off today. This of course powers the pumps and lights. I am wondering if the sudden darkness and no circulation caused the tang to injure himself or stress out???

Thanks,

T

 

is the area around him (colored) real or did u put it in to show where the spot is?...if i had to guess i would say a flat worm...i have a book on it...lemme find it and ill repost

 

The color around it is the actual color. I did not modify the pics in anyway.

Thanks for your time,

T

 

Maybee try adding garlic to your frozen food (if you feed with frozen food) to treat and prevent any infection, if any. I know Kent Marine has a garlic additive. The fish have to injest the garlic for it to work. Just tryin' to help! Good lookn' tang!

 

I am hoping it is just an injury from hitting a rock or something. I can not find anything on this being a disease for him.

Thanks. he is a greta looking Tang and 1 of my 2 favorites in the tank. He is number 1 followed closely by my copperband butterfly. Reason I am looking everywhere to find out what this might be.

Thanks for your time and help.

Thanks Bruce. No book huh? Oh well. I will continue to look and see if I can find out anything on this.

Thanks for the Karma. Hopefully it is nothing. I will update everyone as needed.

Thanks,
