Default Body Fungus

I'm treating my betta for a fungus infection with Maroxy by Mardel and is the second day of treatment and need advice on the process of which I am treating my fish. I clean the water everyday and put betta plus conditioner in the water as well as 2 drops of Maroxy in my half gallon because it's 2.5 ml per 10 gallon I don't want to over medicate and it says repeat no more than 5 days on the bottle. Is there and more advice you can give me with treating bettas for fungus? can plants carry the fungus or snails? because when I bought the tank i bought a plant and female betta from petco and she died from the same infection. I cleaned the tank throughly before buying a new betta but didn't remove the plant. as soon as I noticed the male betta with the fungus I removed the plant did a water change and drove to get the medication. Am I too late? Does he have a chance of surviving?
Thank you for all your help,
UF
