My Scopas Tang has had these white spots on his side for around a week. He is eating and acting fine it’s just freaking me out. I can’t really come to a conclusion on what these can be. I had factored out velvet and ich simply due to the fact that the spots haven’t spread throughout his whole body and that he has been eating fine. I think it might possibly be a bacterial infection but i am am unsure. I can’t really come to a conclusive answer on what these spots might be. Also no other fish in the tank has contracted these small white spots aswell.
