hey whipit
I just got a regal angel, and he has a wart on his chin. He is doing the same thing, going over to the cleaner shrimp and allowing him to clean it. From what the LFS said the wart will fall off eventually, but LFS usually tell you crap to get rid of the fish.
Sorry I could not offer any more help, maybe ask one of the sharks
:D

What on the fish looks fuzzy and uneven?
You could turn the lights out, this will cause even less added stress to the fish. What are you water tests reading? pH,salinity,ammonia,nitrites,nitrates?
