Can someone tell me if this is ich on my blenny?

I just noticed these spots today, I don't think they were on him yesterday as I did a water change and was looking at the tank closely.

He still has a good appetite but does seem to be a bit lethargic and not open water swimming as much.

I've never dealt with ich in a marine setting before but I know it is not good. I will try to set up quarantine tank today but is it even worth it at this point?

Looks more like a scrape, injury or sting.
 
Mighta gotten squeezed between rocks.
 
Ich wouldn't be so localized. Typically would be white dots randomly spread over his body.
