Disease ID Ich or possibly sting?

Hi,

I just added this Scopas Tang to my tank. She was quarantined for 3 weeks, ate fine was active and responsive. I added her to the tank on Friday and she seemed to adjust quickly. Then today she shows these spots.

Ideas? I'm trying to decide if its Ich or something else, her gills don't look affected.
Could it be signs of a sting from an anemone? I did see her bolt away from the bubble- tip at one point.

Did you net the tang from the QT to main tank?

Unfortunately, I had to, she was jumping out of the bowl. Could it be from that?

Most likely. Tang are prone to getting ick from netting, next time use a container/pitcher to scoop him out of QT to your tank.

Gotcha. I came home from buying a new hospital set up (my current one is being used for QT) and the spots are totally gone. I dunno what to do now!
