He's had these little raised almost clear spots on him for awhile now . All concentrated on the upper half of his body all down the middle. None on his disc. Acts completely healthy Eats great. Poops great. No issues whatso ever. Water params are all in check. Nitrate below 20 ppm. Is this any cause for concern ? Hopefully these pics help.

Something in the water is irritating him.could be ammonia or any kind of meds.
 
Maybe even flukes. My Rays have had this. Add prazi asap. It works good
 
Yea I can't decide if it's normal or cause for concern Why I posted it lol. Either way his behavior seems to be completely normal for what that's worth.
 
How is white bumps normal? If Normal then surely all rays have this????

Salt affected my marbles. Now most don't have problems with salt but I did. Maybe It could be the type of water I have and when the salt is mixed with it,it affects the rays, I don't know. I don't believe there is a need to ever add salt. My Rays got these white bumps with salt. It also just appeared at random on a larger marble like a patch. When I treated with prazi it went away.
Prazi Pro will absolutely do know harm to a healthy ray so I would remove salt then dose with prazi. Good luck.
 
I've had salt in my tank before when my ray had a little nick on him No issue it all. But yea I'll probably add some prazi as it's a good over all treatment just in case there's an issue.
 
No need to dose prazi imo. Looks fine to me. All rays have raised bumps like that on their disk. They generally turn white like the image if they brush or scrape themselves on something. If you look at the white patch in the middle it looks like it brushed up against something in the tank.
