Thanks for reaching out about Lucky. First, check water quality for pH, ammonia, nitrites and nitrates. Correct any problems. Is there any other fish in the tank that could be aggressive? Bacterial infections can attack the fins/skin, and if the lesions progress, a veterinary visit is recommended to assess Lucky's health and work on a diagnostic/treatment plan. Any new fish might have introduced parasites. Good luck.
