Fungal infection ?

Hiya, can anyone help id these spots? Im thinking a fungal infection. They do come and go. None of my other fish are affected. Any Advice or treatment would be great thanks

Wow deja vu all over again....did I respond to this in a different thread the other day? If not, we have two identical cases going on(grin).
External marine fungal infections are almost unheard of. This could be a mild bacterial infection, but most likely just damaged fin rays. Using the pic as a guide, take new pics daily. If the spots come and go and show up in different locations, it’s a parasite . If they stay the same, it is just damaged fin rays,
