Nope. I'm referring to Matrix (the filter media).

I read it in one of the FAQs on the site. The FAQ also indicated that Purigen can be used with Paraguard, though the Purigen will filter out some of the malachite green and will alter the effectiveness of the treatment (though won't render it useless).

I don't have ich or velvet in the tank. I suspect one of the fish carries, but is resistant to, brook. The breathing issues are related to oxygenation in my QT, and Clowns are very sensitive to Paraguard (according to Seachem's website) to begin with (they recomend 1/2 dosages for Clowns).
