Please help I have a 3 in Albino oscar in a 30 gallon growout I noticed recently he's been hiding alot when I got a good look at him I saw white fungus looking stuff on the side of him I'm worried about his health.

Is ur heater uncovered?

I suggest getting some api fungus cure and trying that until i can get some more information. Adding some salt to the tank 1tsp per gallon. Keep the post updated.

the heater is a fluval m150 set at 75 F

Is it eating? How is it actingHow long has it been like this? Would suggest dipping the fish in methylene blue.
