The niger trigger looks like it could be brook or velvet.

Can you provide a better photo of the afflicted fish?

Also, that clown trigger is likely to kill everything in that tank at some random point soon or later. They’re notorious for deciding they don’t wish to have tankmates, literally overnight.
 
That's a lot of fish in what looks like a relatively new tank! Second the motion on the Clown Trigger, even the Niger may be a problem at some point. But ya gotta deal with the disease outbreak first, and I'm inclined to say Brook but am not completely sure from the fotos. You're gonna have to treat them in that tank unless you have a huge QT to put them all in and that means a minimum of 60 days in QT . Have you gone through the ammonia/nitrite/nitrate cycle yet? I ask because your rock looks way too pristine to be an older tank.
