From your description, it appears to be a heater burn. With good water quality it will eventually heal. Doing daily water changes will help.
 
ok thanks i added salt and melafix how often do i add salt n how much i put enough for the 120 uk gallons but unsure on ho often u put it in should i just put enough to do the water i replace on the water change or the whole tank and is it every day like melafix
