Black Ich causes small dark spots on the fish. The spots are not the infecting flatworm, but is the fish's skin reaction to the activity of the flatworm. By the time the aquarist sees this on the fish, the (invisible) flatworm has gotten a good foothold.

This might be a good picture for you to see it on a fish:
