My Oscar has a white growth on its eye

[rahne]

Hello,
Just got back from a week at the Guadelupe River. I noticed my Albino O has a white growth on each eye. Could this be lymphocystis?
What can I do to treat it? I am preparing a water change right now.

Did you ever have any luck with a cure on this?

yes, I did. It was some sort of fungus. I used some meds I got from the LFS. Some tablets that disolve in the water. The growth has gone and no visable scarring. But I think it effected her vison.
Thanks for asking.

What was the name of the meds?

Fungus Clear from Tank buddies. I can't recall the active ingrediant. But it was a one time treatment.
