This spot showed up the other day. Right now I have the fish in a hospital tank. They have been in there for about a week and a half because I noticed my gramma had marine velvet which I was treating them for. The gramma is fine now and all the other fish are too except the angel. It also has a few specks on its body, but I cant tell if it is raised scales. Any info would be very helpful.

Still need an ID. Could it be lymphocystis? or Fungus?

doesn't look good, the only thing i can recommend is keep up good feedings, good water quality until you can get a positive ID. Also you could try feeding garlic soaked nori.

Maybe he "slept" on the heater at night and got burned?

I second Kar93's post.
