Sorry about the bad pics. Tank is bright and he moves around a lot.

Parameters are normal. Spots just popped up after I changed the substrate, but all other fish are fine.

The one on the head looks almost flakey and the one on the tail just looks like a white bump

It's not ich then. Does the flakey one look like a scale coming off? Does the bump near the tail have anything protruding or a string hanging off it?
If don't have any salt sensitive fish you can add some salt to the tank to see if it clears up. 1 flat tablespoon per 5 gallons if water. Add it slowly over a day or so.
