Can't Identify Disease. Need Help.

I work at a very small aquarium, and a lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) was donated by a local fisherman, but it seems to have a disease I can't identify. It is a male lumpfish who's red/brown scaleless skin seems to be deteriorating and sloughing off in one patch, leaving the remaining tissue very pink. If anyone can help me out I would greatly appreciate it!
 
Well, it's probably bacterial. Treating it with a broad-spectrum antibiotic might be indicated.
