white fuzzy spots

I've had this goby in a different tank of mine for close to a year with no problems. 3 days ago i decided to switch him over to this tank. the move went well.....the first day he was moving all around checking out his new home, then yesterday he just disappeared. I got a little worried, but then last night right before the actinics went off i caught a glimpse of him.

Well this morning when i got up he was laying under a ledge in plain sight so i took a closer look at him and he's covered in these white fuzzy spots. He's also very lethangic and hasn't moved much in the past 3 hours or so that i've been watching him. any help would be appreciated. Theres also a tomato clown and a firefish in the tank with him that don't seem to have any problems (YET). could this just be caused by the stress of the move?

thanks,

I am guessing that you did not QT.
I have nothing but gobies, so I already know that treatment is limited. I would move him out of the display tank, no matter what the problem is, put him in a QT, dose with melafix or maracyn and see what happens. Also, for any sick fish, I soak my food in garlic and vitamins. Either he will make it or he won't but it is better to be sick outside of the display tank.
