Answer 2

this can be an early sign of ich/white spot before the spots show themselves, it can also be the sign of other parasites such as velvet. see if you can shine a torch on them without startling them, they will usually highlight any problems.

Both these parasitic problems stem from the fish being stressed either through overstocking, water quality problems, incompatibility or a combination of all 3. parasites can also be introduced with new fish that haven't been quarantined.
