Unhappy What's wrong with my fish?

Can anyone tell me what's wrong with my fish, and what I can do to help it? I havent seen it eating for the past few days, and just today I looked at it and saw this....



So far it's only on the one side of the fish and across it's "nose" area.

Thanks.

It looks like it may have scraped itself on something, like that yellow coral piece in the background, for instance, and then got an infection.

Some MelaFix & PimaFix used together may well clear this up in a jiffy.

Sunburn or road rash? Looks like a self inflicted wound. Poor fishy

Melafix does wonders for things like that!
