Almost any fish can be susceptible to white spot or ich disease. I would google some images of white spot or ich and compare them to your fish just to be sure. It can be harmful if left untreated, but I have never lost a fish to ich. There are many different treatments available at your LFS ranging from fizzy ich tablets to chemicals... just follow the directions on the meds and your fish should be just fine!
post some pics too
