Yesterday's pics don't have these spot, is it injury? Circled around the patches. Other two pics are from yesterday.

Can u post ur water parameters. Would try some topical methylene blue.

Water params from last sunday

Water params before WC
KH 3 degree
GH 15-16 degree
pH 7.6

Tap water GH 4 degree, added some replenish to increase GH by 3 degree for 40 gallons

Water params after WC
KH 3 degree
GH 13 degree
pH 7.6

I am checking again now.

He has been trying to jump a little from the water towards heater cable, may be he just scraped that side on heater adjuster knob, I have eheim jager.
 
I have some methylene blue, pimafix, stressguard and seachem cichlid salt, api aquarium salt.

How much methylene blue should I add?
 
Today's params
pH 7.6 (stable)
Ammonia 0 ppm
Nitrite 0 ppm

For sanity check adding a image of ammonia test

It's probably scrapping on the inside of the rim. Maybe try lowering the water level?

What's the nitrate level at?
