Is this ich?

I got this blonde naso tang from the lfs just yesterday...the guy said it was quarantined.

When it arrived it had blotches as it was stressed out. But it is heating actively, swimming. I just noticed some white spots in the fin, tail. Is this ich?

I can see one spot, but it’s too large to be ich. Can you retake the photo under white lights and include a video?

Two spots do not signify ich but what will is breathing rate, if number of dots increase and if location on the fish increases

I can see some indistinct skin cloudiness, but I can’t make out the typical pinhead or smaller white spots of ich.
