I noticed yesterday that my watchman has a spot on his side. He seems to be breathing a bit heavy too. Hes still eating but the spot has me worried.

In the process of trying to catch him and isolate in the hospital tank.

Does anyone know what the spot is??

Do you have anything that could have stung him, like an anemone ?
 
Flukes?
The below list is the most common symptoms that you will find. You may notice one or many of the symptoms listed below:

1 Cloudy eyes
2 Rapid breathing
3 Fraid fins
4 Excessive slim coat production
5 Loss of appetite or even completely stopping to eat
6 twitching/shaking the head from side to side almost like it was trying to shake something off its head
7 discolored blotches on the fish which can even look a lot like velvet some times
8 Flashing against objects in the aquarium with periods of almost no activity
9 White to almost translucent spots on the fish that look almost like the ick virus, but are larger and not as close together.
