 decomposed in all three tanks. (Fish were fine.) Is Melafix known to affect 
 plants? This is a new one on me. - Bob Goldstein >>

I had a discus get beat up by the larger discus and the only tank with 
conditions at all acceptable was my 20H containing my spawning group of 
Pachypanchax sakaramyi.  This tank also has duckweed, java moss, and a large 
java fern with many offspring.  I used the Melafix for two weeks and the 
discus recovered nicely.  He's still in there.  There was no adverse effect 
on the plants.
