My yellow tang is normally swimming out front of the tank. Today I noticed that he was just hanging out in behind my aquascape for the most part, except to come out for food. Looking closer, I see an abrasion on his body. Any guesses what it could be, and if I can treat it? He is old (probably close to 15 yrs), but I still hate to loose him. Any suggestions?

Your other post was answered. Please refrain from cross-posting as others are looking for help on their issues also. Agree- I hope mine make it 15 years . . . I have 6 of them
