Do you do water changes?
Yes
What percentage of water do you change?
51-60%
How frequently do you change your water?

Hi everyone ! I wokedup this morning and saw my stingray tail tip is kind of white. I suspect an agression but im not 100% sure because the only fish that could have attacked RAY-mond are my hi-fin sharks but the bigger is about 5-6'' long so they are still really small.
All my water parameters are fine and there is no dangerous objects in my tank that he could have got injured on.

Here is some pictures of the problem and thank you in advance :)a1.jpg

It's hard to tell what's going on with the tail. I suggest observing your fish for a bit and see if one of the hi-fin sharks are sucking on its tail.

Hi! I noticed that my stingray's tail tip is white this morning. I suspect it might be due to aggression, although I'm not entirely certain. The only fish that could have potentially attacked my stingray, whom I've named RAY-mond, are my hi-fin sharks. However, they are still quite small, around 5-6 inches in size. I have tested my water parameters, and everything seems to be fine. Additionally, there are no dangerous objects in my tank that RAY-mond could have been injured on. Any suggestions or advice on how to address this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Clean water, salt 1tsp per g and separate from other fish.
