G'day

One of my clown loaches in quarrantine has developed white marks on its body. Please see picture below. Any idea what it might be?

Does he hang out near the heater? mine used to when i had them, i had one with heater burn, similar to this.

Although the marks werent exactly the same so ill leave it to ILLUSN or one of the other geniuses here to give you a more exacting response.

Wishing you good luck, and your fish good health,

Looks like a scrape or scratch to me its not raised is it? just flat like the skin has been rubbed away?
