These are typical stress spots with Naso tang but assure good acclimation and oxygen provided. Laying down is not a good sign. Be sure to match salinity with that of tank before release always

They will turn dark or appear to have white blotches on their body when stressed and even at night when lights out .

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

The larger white spots are probably stress spots. I cannot see if the fish has smaller white spots or not.

I've been seeing a LOT of people having issues with blonde Nasos from Indonesia. This has gotten so bad that I'm suggesting people avoid this species.
