Little pimples on the skin, nothing to worry about they get these from time to time they will go away on their own usually as suddenly as they appear.
Your fish looks a little on the stunted side maybe up your water changes and increase your feeds slightly.

if you cant get them onto beefheart geed a mix of dry foods, NLS and colourbits are good as are vipan and sera discus granuals. freexe dried black worms are the BOMB so as soon as you can get some of them.
your maintence sounds good just make sure each water change to wipe down the glass on the inside and give a good vac if you have substrate.
My advice is to NEVER feed bloodworms.
