ID please..white stuff on rocks.

Not exactly sure what this white stuff is on my live rock. I have a pearly headed jawfish who is breathing really heavy under his rock. I'm trying to find anything that could cause this.

thank you, that is what they look like but very very small. still can't explain why my fish is laboring. Idk if he is affected by my lemon peel angelfish and that's why he doesn't come out to eat or anything.
