I know this probably ought to go in the planted tanks section, but I put it here 'cause I figured this forum gets more traffic.
Does anyone have any experience using malachite green in a planted tank? *Not* formalin and mg, but just mg. As I mentioned in a previous post, my persistant ich is back for a second round. The tank temperature is up over 85 right now, but this ich infestation seems worse than the last so I'm thinking maybe I'll have to use more than heat. I seem to remember reading, somewhere (if only I could remember where), that someone had used mg in a planted tank and didn't have problems.
Plants in the tank are Java Fern, Java Moss, Hygrophilia polysperma, Amazon Sword, assorted Vals, and some "imitation" Amazon Sword. Fish are Neon Tetras, Corys, Kuhlis, a SAE, Otos, and a Guppy. Tank is 29 gallons.
Thanks
