Hole in head and fin rot?

She has bumped into the glass several times when I walk up to the tank she'll just start swimming really fast and run into everything

I don't see HITH in that picture. Tank size, Tank mates?

1. The marks on the head might be from swimming into the glass but maybe bad pic looks like 2 tiny holes and 30 gallons
2. Tank mates are afican feather fin catfish, auratus, female kenyi, and a jewel
3. They all get along and the Africans don't mess with the jack dempsey

I hate to say it but the jack needs at least the 30 by him self for a grow out tank and should be moved to at least a 40B. I think the tail looks like one of your Africans may have done that. Usually HITH is caused buy poor water quality. As long as you are amo-0 nitrite-0 and Nitrate under 20 then I think its a space issue.

Yeah I don't think it's the water and really the only time I'm not watching the tank is when I'm sleeping and I haven't seen the African swim near they definitely wouldn't chase her I'll be getting a 75 gallon tank soon though

None of my sa/ca's have ever had HITH so maybe some one with some experience with it will give you a better answer.

The only thing I see are the nostrils. I don't see any signs of erosion or fin rot...
