Can you diagnose my fish?
Answers: Ich would appear close to grains of brackish on the fish, so I'd agree this probably isn't your problem.
I'd need more info for a diagnosis, though. Is this "fuzzy", or slimey, or otherwise?
Is at hand any way you could post a photo so we could see what this looks approaching? If you don't know how to do this, but can get a digital photo, contact me though my profile and I can backing you get one posted.
ADDITION: If this isn't fuzzy, you can rule out body fungus (saprolegnia) and Columnaris (a bacterial infection). But short further info to go on, there's no channel we can diagnose what your fish might have. If you look through the following links, you might know how to figure it out:

is it fuzzy, slimey, bumpy, or look close to whitish cones?
fuzzy = fungus
slimey = slime disease
bumpy = possible cauliflower disease (caused by a virus, uncurable)
cones: cylindrical cones or long white fuzzy appendages = tuberculosis. tuberculosis is uncurable, and would be the worst of these 4 because the pathogen that causes it is so hardy that it will survive person dried out. In the unlikely event that you have this problem, start a bright question and provide photographs and I'll support you from there.
Cauliflower disease and tuberculosis may not be treatable, but if your fish survives, it will never return with it again as it will become immune.
my convicts had one and the same problem. its a fungal infection and must be treated right away. first do a 30% water translate then use the combination of melafix,and aquarium brackish,(use the directions on the labels on the subject of tank size) and verbs doing 30% water change weekly until the fish is cured. that should take assistance of the problem. good luck..
