Hello everyone

I have a Paradise fish for about 3 months now and was fine when i got him but i noticed a small area on his side which has 2-3 scales missing.

I dont know whether this is because he caught them on something sharp or its an infection?

As its from the Gourami family i dont know how to treat as they cant take Melafix...

See video below.
