Tang scratched itself

I have a tenenti tang in QT (moving to DT on Saturday) and somehow he scratched himself yesterday. It doesn't look too bad but it is obviously bothering him as he is rubbing it on the bottom of the tank (bare glass).

What product that fish stores carry would be my best remedy to help sooth him?

Have you noticed him flashing at all before? Just wondering if there is a deeper problem than just a simple scratch. Is he showing any signs of ich?
 
No ich. He was treated with copper and has been in 1.009 SG water for 5 weeks now (e.g. hypo). It is definately the scratch that is bothering him. It is fairly lengthy, about 2" long of his 4" body. He is in there with 2 foxface rabbits, maybe one of them snared him? They seem to get along fine though.
 
Hey Cliff!

He should be ok...it will heal in a couple of weeks. You can always get a stress reliever from Petco or Pet Smart.

The 4-line is doing great...let me know what time works for you on Saturday.

Selcon is always a great idea to add to food to help his immune system, might start that just in case he'll have to battle some sort of disease.
