Will this harm my Inverts?

Will Victoria Green B and Neutroflavine harm my inverts? Or my scaless fish? Because I need to use it but It will be a pain in the butt to remove my cherry shrimp, hillstream loaches and darter.

Hmmm... sounds like the formula for Aquarium Pharmaceuticals's Fungus Cure. It's generally safe for most freshwater inverts & scaleless fish.

Hey how did you know? Thats exactly what im using. thanks OS! Is it a good treatment for tail rot? Some of my endlers have it. I'm also planning to use it so none of the popeye bacteria (is it bacteria) gets to the other fish.

It's pretty good for some kinds of rot, but not much help against popeye. Cleaning your tank is one good way to fight popeye.

thanks
should I clean my filter?

Yes, and the gravel, and everything else, but not TOO clean, that is, don't break it down and start all over, but clean up whatever mess is leading to such excess bacterial growth.

ok I'm waiting for the last fish to show it self so I can put it with the rest in 'transit' and clean the gravel.
