Do I have a sick clown?

This has been bugging me for a while now, so I've taken a photo of him.

I can't tell if the very small spots are just grains of sand/detritus floating in the water that stick to him, or something else?

I've noticed it for the past few weeks, and he's still eating just fine. Sometimes it looks worse than this, with his eyes looking glazed/cloudy.

I had a clown that died from flatworms before I figure out what they were. Looked like 1/8th inch cloudy spots all over his skin and eyes.

 

I'd recommend a fresh water dip. If it's worms they'll start flying off immediately.

 

Yours look smaller and maybe more like ick though.

Don't risk the dip I would quarintine in copper as long as he is eating, until all symptoms disappear.
