bump...looks about the same today...anyone else have any input??...should i put some meds or anything??...just been doing water changes and adding salt...??...a lil worried...i first thought he could have scraped himself too but i dont know...it looks to travel down kinda into the rest of his body...
 
water change
raise temp to 82
dose with aquarium salt at 1 Tbsp/5 gallons

Maybe add some Malafix or Pimafix for good measure.

Looks like it might be fungal to me.
 
It doesn't look like an injury to me or fungal, do a water change, salt and raise temps 84-86 F. As long as he's swimming at the top and eating you shouldn't be to concerned. Keep a close eye on the markings to see if they spread to other areas. Could just be a genetic fault that he may grow out of.
 
Kill the lights for a while too. I thought it looked like he jumped but I see the scrapes on the sides..... Looked a bit stressed.
