could be a sickness...most likely a form of velvet or ich...can u give us ur water qualities and tank setup?
also a pic of the sick fish would really help.

Do you have any bubbles in your tank. I have had the fear of ich instilled in me lately, so i spent some time looking at my tank last night. My skimmer needed cleaning and was spilling bubbles everywhere and they were sticking to my fish. Looked like little white spots, but turned out to be bubbles. Whew!
Dip your fish into fresh water for a minute, due to osmosis, the white spots should then be gone.
if u do this make sure the water is the same ph and temperature...also if the fish starts breathing hard or frantically swimming remove it...also one form of saltwater ich cannot be removed this way due to the fact that it is protected under the slim layer of the fish. good luck though...any update on the fish?
only sometimes i have one and it will occasionally but they are better for the removal of ich and bristle worms....cleaner wrasse are better but dont fare well usually in aquaria.
And are apparently dwindling in number in the wild(I could be wrong on this)
Apparently neon blue gobies will set up cleaning stations as well, and they are pretty nice looking
