I recently had a bout of ich which wiped out all my fish, main tank has been empty since Aug 6th of fish. I purchased 2 small picaso precula clowns and put them into a quarentine tank. I know they are ORA but the fish store doesn't have a seperate fitlteration system so I put them into hyposalinty as a precaution 1.009. The fish were doing fine but about three days ago they started fighting(probably starting their mating ritual) and I noticed marks on the mouth of one of the fish,like his mouth was a bit chewed up and something that looked like 2 warts on his face (sort of like Lemmy from Motorhead if you know who that is). Anyways the last 2 days they really aren't eating, they seem like they are hungry and go for the food but let it right out of their mouths. I don't understand what the problem is, and they look fine otherwise, haven't witnessed anymore fighting. Could it be something bacterial?

Probably just got injured from fighting. Sounds like they'll continue to fight until one is dead. Wanna try to separate them and let them both rest separately?
By the way, I do find the Perculas are more mean compare to the ocellaris.
