Sore on clownfish

I have a nice pair of wild caught percs and have had no trouble with them at all. But today i noticed my female has a sore, scratch, cut, or something along that lines underneath her dorsal fin. Looks like a few missing scales or a sore. They have decided to host my frogspawn as of last week. I have seen other peoples clowns host frogspawn with no ill effects, but is it at all possible they are not immune to the sting of a frogspawn? I have watched the tank late at night, and i have been home for most of the day all this month an have seen nothing attack her. My hermits are dwarfs leave the fish alone, and my diamond goby dont touch her. Every now and again my purple firefish will scare her out of her territory if she comes to close, but never attacks her. Any ideas of whats going on?
 
Could be the frogspawn. My female developed some weird blotches for a few days after hosting my frogspawn, but no missing scales.

Perhaps it's just from a scuffle or some collision you didn't see? Hopefully it'll heal up in a couple of days and everything will be back to normal.
 
Well its hard to tell, but its pinkish so im betting it got through the scales. Its kinda like a blotch, but looks like there is more damage. I hope they will heal up, just trying to gauge what had happend.
