Doesn't look like ich, if there's ich, you'll see lots of little dots, like the fish has been sprinkled with salt. A single spot isn't likely to be the start of ich. Can you get some more photos of him please? Really hard to see anything in those two photos. Any other fish showing signs like flicking and rubbing against things?
Also if you could copy/paste and fill out this template please, it'll help people to figure out what might be going on. Thanks!
