Just got these black skirt tetras, their bag is floating in the tank now and I see all 3 of them have the same white spot on their back top fin.... They all have it so I don't know if its ich or just like a characteristic of them lol.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated bc I don't have a QT tank and they're floating n the bag now acclimating lol

If they all three have it, I would assume it's not disease.

That dot is too big for ich, I too believe it is not ich. However I would beg the differ on the reasoning though: If all three have them, given they are from the same fish tank in the store, chances are they are actually Ich if they are the right size, salt-grain size.
 
I realize they could all have ich if it looked like ich. I was referring to the picture. I wouldn't think another type of infection would attack all 3 fish in the same place.. stranger things have happened, but I doubt it
