Here is his picture from a week ago:



Here he is as of 5 minutes ago



I moved him to a new tank, where my blue/pink girl used to be. The first picture is his old tank, and the second, his new tank. He is normally placid, inspecting things and not flaring. I've been watching him all day and he swims to the bottom corner of his tank and scrapes himself along the bottom corner area and then back up for some more lounging, then back to that corner. The area under his eye is white and I've never noticed that before. The rest of his body is fine, it's just his face. It's not fungus looking, raised, it's just like the scales are white.

I may be crazy and over protective and his color changed..., or he might have something.
Suggestions?

Looks fine to me :)

Yeah I figured I was just being over protective. He's normally a nice pink salmon color and now his face is white in some places, blotchy. I just wanted to make sure this wasn't anything. I kinda figured it wasn't, since it hasn't spread in the last week.
