    Do you have pictures? Pics help alot. Is it possible that its just the clowns markings? I doubt they're spawning fry, how long have you had them?

    Are they under the skin? Are they sticking out (i.e. a lump?) or flat? Are they large or small?

    If they are smaller than a pin head it is possibly turbellarian.. Black ich (flatworms) most common in Tangs.
