    my clownfish has been in hyposalinity for 8 days, his ich symptoms are all gone. but since yesterday there was this little greyish/ white spot / patch ( can't really tell ) around the eye lens of his left eye. i'm afraid it's secondary bacterial infection. i only have melafix as maracyn2 cannot be found here. is it safe to use it in hyposaline ?:-/

    Yes it can be used. It's made for use in both salt and fresh water systems. If you can, try to get your hands on Pimafix as well. They can and should be used in conjunction.
