Dark patches & stripes on rummy nose

[Virgo]

Hi Aquarist Friends,

I have a rummy nose which has developed dark patches and stripes over its body and is a little thin. He is still very active and eating aggressively like others. Shall I be concerned?

Looks like genetics to me, not a disease.
As long as the fish is eating and otherwise acting normally probably no worries.
The Rummies also look very young & should color up as they mature.

Thanks for the information. Hopefully it’s genetics. I’ll monitor further. Thank you.

Unfortunately this poor chap didn’t make it. He stopped eating a few days ago and passed on today. His body floated up and luckily I managed to get it out to prevent other fish from scavenging it.
