My fox facehits my torch all the time but never seems bothered by it. So I would say no. But that is me and what I have observed! Have the white spots cleared up yet?

my frogspawn whacked me good yesterday and i had a nice couple dots (red, not white) for a while.
how old is the tang, what did you recently add to the tank?

the spots r disapearing now. the tang is about 4 years old. and the only recent thing i added to the tank were 2 cleaner shrimp.
thanks for all the help

They can sting... Hopefully if it was a sting the tang will be smart enough to find a new place to sleep.
