Need Information On Api's Liquid Fungus Cure Asap

[Cirein]

I have a 54 litre aquarium with 5 cory catfish (1 Albino, 2 Bronze, Two Tril), 5 Tetra and one Betta.

The Betta had white stuff growing around his mouth so I thought it was fungus and went ahead and treated my entire aquarium with API's Liquid Fungus Cure.

On another forum, I was told that this medication had a chemical in it that is extremely harmful to plants, tetra and cory's.


The chemical is Malachite Green.

Have I gone and given my fish a death wish?

have you got pics of the infection just to check it is fugi, API meds are usually sound so i dont think that you have given your fish a "death wish"
