Can I get help on identifying what disease my naso blonde has?

Saw a similar post that called it white mouth or mouth rot.

Has been in my tank for a little less than a week. Was eating at the lfs and is still eating brine right now; has some trouble with mysis.

Thanks in advance

looks like it may have bumped its mouth during transport, or perhaps snagged a tooth in the net when caught. Moving fish can be pretty rough and stressful.
I couldn’t get the video to play. As long as it isn’t breathing fast and as long as it eats, it will likely recover on its own. Try cutting the mysids into smaller pieces for it.

Sorry, I can’t see the white spots. Naso get large white spots as a stress response, but small white spots, like grains of salt could be ich.

I also feel like I see white spots on him as well. Is that the case?

Thanks Jay. Unfortunately found him dead today. Naso was breathing pretty hard but was eating a lot throughout the past day. Hoping to try my luck again when a healthy blond is happy and established at an LFS
