That's not ich, but the picture isn't clear enough to say what might be going on here. Maybe a video would be clearer?
What other fish are in with it?
How long have you had the fish?
Is it showing on both sides of the fish or just that right side?

Pics are too fuzzy and at a bad angle to see. As requested by Jay, video may be better of at least 25 secs

Thank you, I have had her? For a month in a 100 gallon tank with 2 clown fish, a lawnmower blenny, a watchman phony and one that was supposed to be something else that I believe is a purple f
Dottyback(hateful heifer but never aggressive to tang). It tried & tried to get a better picture or video with no luck. Today I can’t find her so I assume she is deceased. I have kept the lights off for 2 days hoping it would help. At this point I don’t have a quarantine tank. Thank you for replying
