Help!! Wound / Spot inside my Golden Ram?

[The.WishMaster]

I just spotted this weird mark/spot on or inside my golden ram. What is it? Do I need to do something? He is swimming fine and is active. It just appeared today out of nowhere.

Upon closer look, it seems that it is inside the fish and not on the skin outside. I am scared as I really love this fish. What can I do to help him?

Please advice.

I'm not a 100% sure but this might be a heater burn/wound from decor.
Apparently, API Stress Coat may help with healing tissue,
You can ask your LFS on more advice -
Hope this helps - best wishes for you fish too 🙂

Could it just be developing some red pigmentation as it ages? Only a thought.

Only advice I can offer is that I've had a similar although smaller red streak on a young German ram and it went away a couple of weeks after I noticed it.
Not sure a lfs would be able to give you any advice other than buying product "A." Then again I don't know your local fish store, so could be doing them an injustice.

You could try asking on this forum (Apistogramma.com) if you draw a blank here.

For reference.

Looks almost like a bruise rather than anything more sinister,I'd just monitor and hopefully it will disappear like @John q's

I did a 80% water change and have been treating the water with easy life 30+ action and it has significantly reduced visually however I do see the fish still being a bit jittery which I didnt see before. Its not a heater burn as I dont have a heater in my tank.
