I purchase an eartheater from a lfs. Put him in main tank. Got beaten up by the other geos. No scale damage but fin damage. Transferred him to an empty tank. @ days after. White spots appeared all over the fish. Just want to ask for clarification here in the forums. Is ick the only disease that has the symptoms of white spots? Btw, I already started the heat/salt therapy. Here is a pic of the fish. Also, he doesn't have an appetite and usually stays in one corner only.

 
If the spots are quickly appearing and about the size of grains of salt then it is unlikely to be anything other than ich
