Default White film on fish?

That could be ich.

Maracyn is the medicine use to treat the disease.

From your description it sounds like your fish has Maracyn, Do a google
search on it, to see if this is indeed what your fish has, if so there are
products such as Mardel for treatment. You should also set up a hospital
tank and quarantine the infected fish until you A: know what it is and B:
can treat him without affect your other stock.
Good Luck

I have an FO only talk with three fish. The tank is about 1 year old
and in pretty good shape. However I have noticed that my fish (eyes
and skin) seem to have a white fim on them. They are eating quite well
and seem to be in good spirits.

Can anyone suggest some things to look for or any disease that I might
be heading into?

Thanks,
