Beautiful WT bristletooth. You're lucky to have found one. I've been searching for a month and just found one for sale.

Can you give us some tank details please?

Clear Pictures under white light from multiple angles including with the fins out would ago help.

Is the fish breathing rapidly, swimming into the power heads, eating?

I’m seeing some signs of flukes. Definitely an external parasite of some kind. Best treatment is to do dips and quarantine, running cupramine (or PraziPro for flukes).

I think I'm seeing flukes, I'd run prazipro first, it's easy, intake treatment and has no affects of corals and most inverts. I have dosed more than directed with no issues to any inverts or wrasses. BTW twining! Have had mine for just about 3 years now.

Just hit full dose copper today in qt.
If you plan to run a prazi treatment, Ensure you have a lot of aeration. I keep an extra 3-in bubble disc in every QT tank.

That's one of the best looking tangs I have ever seen.
