It could be a disease but some animals do it as aggression or affection. Usually ich though. It could be from stress.

test strips are not allways accurate take a water sample to your lfs and they will do an accurate test for u just incase.

be careful,with the fish you have in such a small tank can cause a lot of stress,that puffer could do with a 30g tank not a twenty!!

Ok he's quite small and seems happy although the cleaner wrass seems 2 bug him a bit
