I was gifted a few tangs from a buddy and was super smart and didnt quatraine....
Needless to say all the fish from my display are now in a quaratine tank due to a small ick outbreak.
But i noticed small brown spots on my fox face that was perfectly healthy yeaterday and was bright yellow.
Anyone have any idea if its stress from being moved or a disease??

Can you try for a clearer picture or even a short video?
There is a disease caused by a turbellarian worm that causes black spot disease in tangs and foxface, but these spots look too large.
Do you have anemones or stinging LPS corals in the tank? That could just be a reaction to being stung by them.

Jay likes video, I like Pics- Post both if you can under white lighting and assure the lens of camera and tank glass are clean
