is this heater burn or what am i dealing with

[jeffers]

ok woke up this morning and she was doing fine. came home from lunch and it looks to me like heater burn i have a heater without a guard on it and also a rena smart heater. so im thinking she got behind the glass heater as i dont think the rena would do it. but i think its heater burn because its in a straight line. but take a look and let me know what you think. thanks

could be, but looks more like a pleco mark to me. is there a pleco or other tank mates? better pics would help, should heal no problem. just make sure its still eating and there is plenty of water changes.

how about using the macro setting on your camera. looks like a little flower... upload some clear pictures ... cant ID a thing from those pix

Well I beleave that it is a heater burn as it's a line and not really a circle mark went and checked it ou a bit ago. And it's already looking better. Also it's my phone I'm using as the camaraderie so great pics are rare lol
