Hey guys.. Kinda nervous about one of my mochas anal fins has a small tear in it... I looked closely at all my fish, that seems to be the only
one... Water params are good except battling a small phosphate issue.. Please tell me it's nothing bad... They're both small clowns, so could it be from fighting over dominance?
 
Yup its over dominance, dont worry about it just moniter it and make sure it gets better, not worse. If you have good water parameters it will heal overnight (happened with my marine betta i was astonished) lol good luck
 
Oh wow ok! Thanks! After looking closer, the one with the tear is actually a hair smaller... So maybe they have paired and the female is staking her claim. I just saw the bigger one nip at the smaller one again... Hopefully they end up happy.
