Not sure exactly what it is but add some salt to the tank and get some melafix to add in as well. Nip it in the ass before it spreads anymore

What will melafix do? i thought that was for nipped fins...
 
anyone else?
 
Gonna give it a whirl and say that looks like a fungal infection.

Keep up on your water changes, and put in some medication for fungal infections.
 
Melafix also treats fungal infections, pimafix for parasitic

its an external disease and melafix won't be enough
in this case, I would highly suggest Seachem's Paraguard- used in an hour(s) dip method or quarantined

Definitely looks fungal. Salt, raise temp, and An anti fungal.

Be fast, it can spread fast and is deadly. If he starts to look lethargic you will prolly need to salt bath.

I just went through this in my wifes goldfish tank and it killed half the tank before I realized the issue and got it under control
