I feed him pellets seaweed and mysis shrimp. He eats like a pig. Maybe I'll try more seaweed. The pellets have garlic in them.
 
Mine had something similar, I thought it looked like fight marks, I added some algae sheet more often seems to have helped can't say really i put the tank on auto feeder about same time, so he might had reaction to new feed, so I supplement more, it's gon so i don't know..i think min e was feed related but...
There like raised white dots. Almost like large specs of sand.

Could just be sand stuck to his mucous coat, but it does look a lot like ich. See photo below for comparison.
