Hey, new to the hobby here, tanks about 3 months old, I have a pair of clowns, the female has been pretty aggressive with the male, nipping his fins and such so I separated him in a little isolation box so he could relax for a few days, as I do not have a separate tank, but now the spots I thought were bite marks or something look like they might be growing in number but I’m not sure.

Is there any whitish looking slime on his body? It looks similar to ich to me but I am no expert and others will have better info. I would also be mindful of possible secondary bacterial infections if he is really beat up

I don’t really see slime but when you zoom in they look like white bumps to me
