Not the best pics.. I kept them somewhat large so you can see. He moves fast, so hard to get a stable picture.

Over the course of the last 7 days or so, he's been developing a white mouth, slowly. Today it looks the worst that its ever looked.
Also his first dorsal is white.
Is this a fungus? Parasite?
Parameters are stable..
Salinity: 1.025 (refract)
Temp: 80-81F
pH: 8.2
Nitrate: 0ppm
Nitrite: 0ppm
Ca: 440ppm
Alk: 12dKh
Ammonia: < 0.05
He's eating fine, and diet consists of brine, mysis, oraglo pellets, and some flake. He hasn't really taken to green marine algae yet, but we're still trying.
Help!
