Fairly certain this is, but looking for confirmation.

Looks like mucus cones but keep an eye on it. Ich will increase in location and number of dots daily. Can even be grains of sand. Check again tomorrow. If mucus cones, others in tank will show no signs

Can you post a few more pics? At first glance this does not look like Ich.

I’ll try to catch some more when he comes out again. He is newer to the tank and hides a lot yet.

I looked and there are no spots on my other fish (fingers crossed).

The foxface is a little stressed. I bought him from Petco on Wednesday because he was in a 20 long for two weeks. After putting him in my tank. My powder brown tang become a little aggressive so the foxface kind of hid in one corner.

He has been eating just fine and is out swimming more now that the tang generally leaves him alone.
