Brook? Unknow issue - Tang questions

I have a gold rim/White cheek tang in QT. No treatment as of yet. He is now eating good and putting on weight. However tonight, I noticed the tang has what appears as a piece of dander in/near his upper eye. Also there is a spot or two on his body that looks like skin is flaking off. Doesn't look like brook pre se. I have Cupermine and PraziPro on hand. I was hoping to hold off on any treatment for a little while longer, as, before tonight, no symptoms. And the tang has only been eating for about 4 or 5 days. Would like a bit more eating before starting treatment due to fear of suppressed appetite.

Only other issue to report is fish is still a bit skittish - have had it for 9 days. Also fish will do a quick shake or twitch, but not really flashing and no signs of ich, yet.

Advice? Wait a few more before starting the prazi? Start now? FW dip?
 
Brook in unusual (but not unheard of) for a tang. Treatment is formalin; preferably a dip. Post pics if you can.
