remove pleco and add salt
 
pleco and maybe he keeps running into ur drift wood make sure there is no sharp edges on parts sticking up....
 
I've seen marks like that from plecos and from other rays (but more often from other males rays as they become mature). I'd remove one and see if it gets worse- if it still does try the other one!

Good luck.
 
I am well aware that my rays will need a bigger tank as soon as money allows they will have one. My main concern is what is going on with my ray.

I meant no offense, I just meant that your other ray may be bothering him.
 
looks like male maturity aggression bites, I'm not sure about pleco bites because I don't house any pleco.
the area where he is bit-up looks like where my male will bit the female during breeding, he did this as well to my male orbignyi after I sepperated him from the female.

Pleco or fungi... remove pleco & salt. Generally ray bites are around the disc where the other ray gets a chance to grab a quick bite. If you have rays that are getting bit on the top from other rays it means the ray is ill & won't move out of the way... not good...
