Scratched Tiger Oscar? Seeking advice

[bpha]

Hello all!
New to fish keeping and I have a little tiger Oscar who has been home for a week and now appears to be quite scratched? I think it’s scratches but again, newer to the hobby so I’m seeking advice because I’m not sure . Tank levels are great , he’s in there with one other tiger Oscar but I don’t see any bullying occurring but I’m also not watching 24/7 .
I will include photos but they aren’t the easiest to photograph and my camera isn’t the greatest
Any advice or guidance greatly appreciated

Hello, oscar fish are clumsy. If there is something to bump they will bump it. So if you have anything sharp in tank you need to sand down or remove it. I had the suction clips that hold my heater that had ruff edges on the tips & she managed to hurt her self on those. Had to remove those & replace w/a cover.
They are really fast growers I got mine at 3/4inch & now at 4mo she's at 5+inch. It's recommended that they be fed 3x a day if possible. Hope this helps!!!!!
