[Mampam]

Are you sure it's fungus and not some sort of nasal discharge?

 

[varanio]

RI most likely do you keep it warm enough?

May be just some salt deposits Dont forget lizards control their ions level by excreating some in the urine and some by the nouse. Its completly normal and comon specialy on lizards related to iguanas, wich is the case RI is a more mucous looking hillness

I would agree with the others, check your temps, could be a respitory infection, can you tell us about the enclosure?

what kind of light? does it have the proper uva/uvb output? do you also have a basking light? what are your temps? cool side/warmside? night time temps?
