Hard to tell from the photo. Do you have any stinging coral or anemones in the tank? If so, it'd be worth the time to watch their habits. If they interact it is a very likely the cause. A FW dip may be premature and induce undue stress.

My thoughts also.
 
ok cool they def. spend time in the finger leather at night ill keep an eye for stress changes but so far they seem happy. I was under the impesion that all corals sting to a certain extent does a devils finger sting?
 
Hopefully someone with leather exp can chime in, I don't keep them. Leathers do produce chemical compounds which interact with other corals, but I don't know if they can sting like LPS corals can.
 
does it only seem to be in the orange aria of there body. my clown get small black spots on them sometimes also but go away after a couple days and they are always eating and healthy.
