No it isn't. If your oscar is breaking out in white cottony growths, here is what I think is happening: the Asian RTC is beating up the oscar and the resulting wounds are getting infected with fungus.Also is Ich like cotton fungus?
If this is the case, it's an indication that it's no longer time for the RTC to have a tankmate.
If it is in fact ich, then read this post for treatment ideas.
