Black Spots On A Blue Tang?

Hi all, For the past month or so my Blue Regal has gone through a major sickness. At first it looked like ich, but after it cleared up in quarantine, he had white bumps along his body. Since then, he and the other tankmates traveled to Las Vegas from Illinois and all were doing great in their new environment. The Blue Tang even cleared up and got his color back. Now, his bumps have returned and there are mostly black spots throughout his body, but still having the protrusions. I’ve begun freshwater dips, but I don’t know what he has and how to continue treating it. He continues to eat normally (vitamin C enriched algae, flakes soaked in garlic, etc) and is not changing behavior (not rubbing against rocks or hiding). What can you suggest? Chris Karl
