Is This Ich?

I just got a new pair of True black percs (aqua cultured). I am noticing these little white specs on them.

hmmm, thats a toughy. It doesn't look like ick to me but the number of spots is troubling.

are their eyes cloudy or is that just the picture? that might be a sign of ick as well

There is no where as many white spots today and we have not done anything. Maybe air bubble? Also their eyes are normal, the flash gave them cloudy eyes.

When my new fish get stressed white spots appear. When they calm down the spots dissappear. Would you stop buying fish with spots on them!!

All the fish we bought did not have spots on them when we purchased. Also we Q our fish. This happens after we put in the DT. The clowns were in there for one day and the white spots appeared. The tang, even tonight has no white spots that look like ich just the Lympohcytis (spelling?). Which I am soaking nori in garlic and trying to keep him happy, should go away soon.
