Default Pimafix/Melafix - more anecdotal stuff

Thanks.
I did the dosage on my 125 g tank(ouch, big price!) and my discus did
not like it. They all turned dark and I'm watching them carefully
today. If they start to have problems, I will do a 90% water change
right away. I hope it kills whatever things that made their fin tip
roting, not the discus! I'm not sure if they can take another dosage
or not!

What's the dosage of combing these two?

Thanks


Melafix: Instructions:
Remove activated carbon from filter, if possible. Add 1 tsp for every
10 gallons of water. Repeat daily for 7 days followed by a 25% water
change. Treatment can be continued if necessary

Pimafix: Instructions:
Shake well before each use. For best results remove carbon during
treatment.As a disease treatment: add 1 teaspoon for every 10 U.S.
gallons of aquarium water. Repeat dose daily for 7 days. After 7 days
make a 25% water change. Treatment may be continued, if necessary.In
sal****er aquariums: it may be necessary to turn off the protein
skimmer while treating with this item. In aquariums with no filter, a
slight haze may form. Make a 25% water change, if necessary.
