Is this Ich?

I have these white spots that are larger than what I remember Ich being. There kinda the size of half piece of rice or so on my neon Gobys,

I tried catching them and there no way I can do it with out tearing my entire tank and coral apart so there stuck in there with the reef Tank. Non of the other fish are showing any signs there a little less than a month old.

Fish in the bottom of the second pic looks dead! Looks like ich on the fish in the top picture.

OH JEEZ!! Now I see what we are supposed to be looking at. WOW, that one is definitely ICH, and that fish won't make it.

Google marine lymphocystis and see if that looks more appropriate. Does not look like ich, velvet or brooklynella from those pictures.

Looks like some kind of fungus. Any chance you can get better pictures? Hard to tell to be honest.

the fish on the bottom Picture is actually on the glass. Yeah its on both the Blue and Yellow Neon Goby nothing else in the tank Has it. Other fish are a Bang Cardinal, 2 True Clown, Azure damsel, Yellow Damsel, Midas Blenny, Spotted Hawkfish, Blue Throat Triger. 2 Skunk Cleaners a Sand Star and a red sea Star. I will try to get some better pictures but the Camera Phone is having a hard time Zoming in.
