My Jack Dempsey has white things on his face

Home More advice Pets & Animals

We just aquired our Jack Dempsey and Oscar back from a friend and they are quite large. At first when we got them set up they seemed to be dong just fine. We added our other tank in with them that consisted of about 4 smaller cichlids and gave them some rosies and everyone seemed to do fine for about 2 weeks. We then noticed that the Jack Dempsey was hiding quite often we he came out we noticed these white head looking things around his mouth and then a few days later there were a few up by his eyes and one of his eyes looked like it quite larger than the other. I know something is wrong with him and I don't want him to die. We has been around for a long time. Can anyone help??? What are these white head looking things on his face???
