Fox face with new sores on him

I've had my foxface for almost a year.

I haven't added anything new to the tank in quite some time, but over the past few days, I've been noticing more and more marks on the left side of my foxface.

It almost resembles Latteral Line disease....but not quite.

He also has some almost translucent areas on his tail (see last pic)

i pulled out a few of my books, but nothing in them has given me a clue as to what this could be.

He's still eating well. Not rubbing or scratching against the rocks. No odd behavior at all. There is a little bit of extra slime comming off him, but that's normal when a fish is fighting something.

Pics. It's only on his left side.

They appear to be wounds of some sort could something be stinging him? or some bacterial infection perhaps?
 
I do have a lot of corals that could be the culprit. I have lots of Euphyllia in my tank. That's the reason I'm leaning towards.

The wounds don't seem to be getting anyworse, and they don't look infected. He's still eating well and acting normal.

I've added some more nori do his diet, and some garlic soaked food....not sure if that'll help or not...we'll find out, i guess.
