Default Problems with my Tang

I have a Carribean Tang that I have had for about 3 weeks. It is eating well but has developed several brown patches (look like bruises) on it's body. I do not know what this is or what to do. The fish appears heathy other than that. The other 4 fish in my 120 gallon tank are doing fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jim

Do you have any pics?? Could they be scrapes? I had a kole tang that had that but it was just whipping around the tank too fast and brushing up against the rocks as it went.

Is it a mature CT or a juvenile? Their colors do change a lot as they mature. Be sure to feed lots of spirulina flake, nori etc

Cool, someone other than me actually has one of these. Mine never has brown spots on him though.
