Any idea what is wrong with my Borellii's pectoral area?

I have had this female for it only a few days now.

(at least I'm certain she was a female, and so was my LFS)

Is it from trying to squeeze in a cave? Is the male harassing her bad? Is this a sneaker male and my dominant male is attacking?

I will continue to monitor and try and do a ~50% water change every day. Any other suggestions? I have a blackwater tank I can throw her in while it heals... perhaps the tannins will help?

Re-designing and starting a new fish room all over again. This time we'll have many more Apistsogramma species. We are expanding.

Hi,

just in case you happen to live in Germany (or Netherlands): I have a wildcaught female A. psammophila, you could have it for free. I have no use for it anymore.
