It's really easy to catch all the isopods, if that's what you've got. I used a small narrow necked vase, put some scallop in it and put it in the tank at night. Every 30 minutes I removed it and emptied out the isopods. After a few times, I had them all and never saw another on my fish. Do not FW dip your rock.

Here's the best I can do with my camera. If you want, zoom in so you can see it better.

zooming doesn't help, but to me it looks like a white fuzzy mass? Is that correct?

It almost looks like there's something burrowed under his skin. It was fuzzy at first. It looked like a fuzzy bump at first then I gave him a fw dip and it burst and now it looks like an open wound with fuzz around the edges. It's quite gross.
