You may want to try the Disease Forum. Until then, I would add some Melafix or Pimafix and raise the temp. This is probably some sort of fungus. I would also remove him from the tank and move to a quarantine tank (if you have one). If you do not have meds, I would add some aquarium salt. Good luck...
