Will MelaFix kill my fry?

[usacutie81]

If I treated the guppies in the tank with MelaFix and there are also fry in the tank, will the fry be okay, or will they die? I haven't had any experience with medicating fish, so I'm totally at a loss. How will the fry react?

I don't /think/ it will. I used it in a tank with very young pygmy cories in it and they were fine but I've never kept guppy fry so I can't say for sure.

Cool, thanks. Anyone else know for sure? If I don't hear anything soon I will probably just go ahead and dose the tank...

The fry will be fine with Melafix.
