Have any of you ever had this happen before? What could it be and what should I do?

I'm not sure what the problem is... they're fine but just want to make sure I don't have some disease spreading.

I treated the tank with Pimafix and Melafix and increased the frequency of my water changes and all is better now.

It comes from injuries, or stress. Water changes and salt are about the best things I have found to help.

I'll work on doing more water changes and treat with salt (since it's cheaper than meds).

Agree, i try not to ever use meds unless the fish is really in bad shape.

I have had many a Cichlid to develop this. Usually I realize I have neglected that tank to long. A good filter rinse the day before or after the h20 change. Never a filter and water change on the same day !
