My Molly Felicia has some black spots on her body and I've been trying to research what it could be with not much luck.

I have 3 mollies. Felicia my orange/white another female Gold dust Molly and a Male all black. I've read that with in Molly communities they have some what of a pecking order. By the looks of things Felicia is at the bottom. My male chases both females but the gold dust will also go after Felicia. When I first got her she had no black spots. It seems like she has been nipped a couple times by the others and am wondering if this may be the cause of the spots ? I have re arranged the decorations within the tank a few times to try and give her more areas to just chill out which has helped but the spots are still there. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I added a few pics. Not that easy to get a good shot of the spots but pic 4 you can really see what I'm talking about.
