start of ICH?

I noticed today that my fish has spots(not to sure if he had them before) moslty on his fins and forehead i guess u could call it...... It doesnt seem to be that the dots seem to be quite numerous. If the fish does have what actions should I take. Oh yeah its a pseudochronic skunk.
 
Sounds like ich to me, I would recomend setting up a qt tank and putting the fish in hypo for 3-4 weeks and leave the main tank fishless for atleast 3-4 weeks in order to have all the ich die off thats left in the main tank. Read the pinned threads in the disease forum for more infomation on setting up a qt tank and the hypo process. I would also recommend qting ALL new fish you get before you put them into the main tank to prevent this from happening again.
 
You don't put the fish in hypo in your main tank. Only fish can be put in to hypo. Inverts and corals will die in the hypo process and thats why you have to set up a qt tank to put the fish in and leave leave everything else in the main tank. The pinned thread in the disease forum has tons of information that will help you greatly. Make sure you read it through carefully and follow all steps.
 
It may be ich. Sand looks differen't then ich. This is ich on my baby regal I had 2 year ago.
