Looks like a fungal infection... Saprolegnia

 

Look for an antifungal fish food or food additive. Or put it in a QT with a antifungal meds in the water. If you do move the fish you can gently remove the majority of it manually with some tweezers. Good luck hope the lil guy feels better!

Thank you so much for the help I will get the meds first thing in the morning. Another small question it's a 2.5g pico the only other inhabitants is a peppermint shrimp and a small colony zoas, I don't have another tank for qt would I still be able to medicate the tank without killing anything else?

Sorry for the late response... Pimifix should be shrimp safe. zoas should be ok as well.
