Found a white bump on his nose this morning. i found it on my way out the door. i have 2 other axies with him and theres nothing wrong with them. they are in a 75 gallon on sand. i havnt checked the water parameters as i am not home until later. but i just wanted to know if anyone could give me any insight to what this could be and how to fix it.

What temperature is your water? Post your parameters when you can. Have you introduced anything into your tank recently?
 
That looks very much like an abscess and requires urgent vet treatment to have it drained and antibiotics prescribed.
This cannot be fixed with a water change or salt bath, it's nothing you can help on your own.
