Flame Angel, White face

[sprieto]

I have a flame angel about 3 inchs long.
Just moved to new 180g tank.
Showing signs of white all over face (well not all over, but not spots, covering checks and nose).
Does not luck like ich (not dotted or spotted, more blotchy).
Any ideas or suggestions?

Any ideas?

My tang's back side was turning white and I was told on another site that when a fish turns white, it's a sign of stress but not sure if that's true or not. Could be stressed from the move.

Can you post a picture? Is the fish just getting pale? Or are the scales actually eroded off such as in head and lateral line erosion?

It just looks pale white, like really white, but no erosion.
I have a blue hippo tang who has the erosion seen so common in blue hippo tangs (what is the erosion in the face of blue hippo tangs, lateral line erosion), but this looks different, it started small and grew, but is more wide spread across the face.
I will try and get a pic.

Trouble posting pic (to big?) I am still trying.
