looks like abrasions to me jsut keep an eye on them and see if they heal up quickly. it should only take a day or so for them to heal.

there fins heal very fast. 2 days after i got one with a ripped fin it was healed already. There is one fish with no marks at all, i think hes the bully. maybe i should do the 'bag' technique already ?

the damage is really not that bad. oscars are rough with each other and this sort of thing happens all the time. i think you would be jumping the gun to start punishing a fish when you dont even know for sure who the culprit really is.

When my fish get beat up a little I like to add some stress coat to the tank, it has aloe vera that is supposed to help them heal and build their slime coat back

Just learned something new at this site, read on down what it says about API Stress Coat, they say aloe Vera is an inexpensive filler.
