Black Spots on Clownfish?

Hey everyone,

My Mohawk Puzzle Oscellaris has started to become darker and get some black spots on him. I know usually these are associated with coral stings, but he has never hosted anything. He sleeps in the top corner of the tank so I know he isn't getting stung at night. He is super healthy, active, and eating a lot. I have no reason to believe he has a parasite or anything because everything in the tank is totally clear of all signs of ick and everything is super healthy and growing like crazy.

Is it possible that he is just turning darker/black to match the full B&W I have?

Here is a picture of the spots, they are on both sides:
