Welcome to the forum!
All of the marks look like injuries to me.
If I had to guess, I’d say one of the clowns is the culprit.

Best bet for ich is copper in a qt + fallow.
Management is nothing but a band-aid.
I don’t think that’s what this is though.

Have the spots changed at all since they first appeared? This does not look like ich, but as I mentioned, like the results of injury.
None of the damage looks infected, but you’ll want to keep an eye out for infection and treat as necessary.

So is the consensus that it isn’t ich. Good. The spot hasn’t changed at all in a week or so. The goby’s “dot” is gone.
