i have a whitetail bristletooth that just got out of QT and I’m not sure if his mouth is more white now in display tank. Could just be easier to see with the light. Not sure if this is just how the fish’s mouth is, or is it something needing treatment?

Sorry, these are the best photos I could get.

Can you post pics without the blues on?

It’s possibly an injury from scraping algae.
 
Often the fish's immune system can deal with these conditions. But if it doesn't or appears to be getting worse, Sulfaplex is great for these types of infections.

Agree if it doesn't get better on its own in a week or so I'd use Sulfaplex as recommended^^^. Would not hurt to add Kanaplex as well.
