    Need clarifying information... is it grain of salt whitespot, or fuzzy whitespot, could be a host of things, some not disease related, pics speak a thousand words!!

    HITH. Maybe Hole in the head! Oscars are famous for it if you don't keep up on the water changes. Need a picture to tell for sure.

    to be safe and if it is HITH do more water changes and add salt it help lots with HITH and will help treat the Oscar if theres something else wrong with it like fungus or something. make to use the proper salt tho xD
