What are peoples opinions on this, ich or fungus??, initially some clearly defined white spots cane up in friday so I began useing some ich treatment, however since then the spots seen to have become larger and less defined, more fuzzy, the fish has gone off his food but doesn’t seem to be struggleing to breathe. Any opinions welcome,

very blurry so hard to tell.. doubt it's ick though.. those are pinhead style and sharply defined. so until a clearer pic is made we can only assume fungus out of those two options

They definitely look like some sort of fungus. Ich usually have bigger spots.

Ok thanks for your thoughts guys, the general sensus seems to be fungus not ich, currentley I've been useing whitespot treatment every 48 hours along with a partial water change. The last one was done this morning, should I switch to a fungus treatment now or wait another 48 hours for the current white spot solution to go rather then adding any more chemicals to the mix??,
