Re: problem with

Not all spots are Marine Ich. Fish can develop a kind of pimple similar in nature to the human kind. Bacteria near the skin surface are walled off by fish cells and contain the toxins in a pimple-like structure.

Keep an eye on it to see what they do. I would do a large water change for sure when the water is ready.
