MelaFix

[Valyrian]

Can I use it on my blue gourami with torn fins? From what I've seen, it's supposed to be used for goldfish and koi.

Yes, you can.

I have used on many types of fish, including Gouramis, Bettas, Platies...etc.

Personally, I have found clean water and a little salt (For fish that can handle it) do about the same thing as Melafix for healing fins. But I still think it's a good med for other things.

Torn fins is exactly the type of thing it's meant for. I find that pristine water is all you need for quick and perfect healing - even salt is not really necessary.

I used melavix on a betta with torn fins and it worked great. If your filter has charcoal, it's best to remove the charcoal.

melafix should be used in 1/5 dosage for betta's.

Melafix works wonders as long as you use tiny doses in smaller tanks (1/2 to 1/4 the dose). Make sure that there is plenty of aeration in the tank, and you gourami should be feeling better in no time!
