It looks like either ich or velvet. Either way they need to be moved to quarantine tank and therapeutic copper needs to be started ASAP!

Can you post a clear video? I'd like to see the fish's respiration rate - that's how you tell ich from velvet (the latter causes rapid breathing). Either way though - you'll need to move all of the fish to a stable quarantine tank and treat them with coppersafe at 2.25 ppm for 30 days.

I believe it is brooklynella.
