It would help if you posted a picture of your fish. That way we can help diagnose it.

"Dry scaley spots" most likely is not ich. Ich looks like he's been sprinkled with sugar or salt. Keep an eye on him. As long as he continues to eat and appears otherwise healthy, be patient and just watch him.

Not ich. Do you have corals (frogspawn etc.) an anemone or a rabbitfish? Sometimes some of my fish have white marks on them that I think are stings from one of the above.
