The picture is not clear enough to tell. Please describe fish behavior.

The fish is acting fine. Swimming around picking at rocks. He is not breathing heavy, rubbing against rocks or acting odd. I noticed them yesterday. The bumps (2) don't seem to be raised. They are more of a tan in color.

I have tried to diagnose what it might be, however, it doesn't seem to fit into any of the categories described in the stickies.

Thanks for the help!

No diagnosis stands out to me. Watch to see if the spot(s) expand or if fish behavior changes. Flashing, reclusiveness, light sensitivity, hovering near water returns would all be suspicious behaviors.

Copy that and thanks for the response. I'll update with new developments.
