Did you cycle the tank properly before adding the Barra?
What are the water conditions of the tank? Ammonia , Nitrite, etc

could be stress from the water conditions etc, but I reckon that you need to treat the tank for white spot, you can get the medication from your lfs, do it sooner rather than later or he will get worse. Good luck

are the spots? (colouring = stress related or burns) or are they tiny little white growths. Like someone has peppered salt all over it? Either way, take tests and let us know
