blood red parrot fish

Question
my fish has started developing black/blue markings on both sides of its body and also its head. they have appeared over the course of about a week and are not on any of my other fish.i have a slighter larger orange parrot and have seen this one bump into the one with spots.it is eating very well and there are no other problems obvious. any advice would be appreciated

Answer
Hi Chanel,
 These sound like typical fish "bruises" that should heal if the fish is left alone.   Keep an eye on things to make sure that the larger fish is not attacking the smaller one.
