    It looks like bacterial ulcers. Rainbows seems to get these more than other fish. Lake Kutubu rainbows seems to be more prone to it.

    The first pics looks like a leach of sorts. The second could be an internal parasite as well. Wait for other members to try clarify for you. Does the one in the first pic move?
