So my clown has inner parasite and fin rot. Moved him over to 10g with 2 other clowns. Can I put
Kanaplex, Metroplex, Furan 2, and API GC in together at the same time? Someone told me by mixing all those treatments they remove basically every type of parasite/rot/any sickness so I don't have to worry. Is this okay?

I’m assuming you will feed the General Cure for internal parasites? If so that’s a good start. Can you post pics of the fish? Flukes can cause tattered fins, did you do a FW dip to check for them?

I've been feeding API GC for a week over. The 2nd day I started he doesn't eat anymore. I didn't do FW dip yet...

Don't add anything at all to the FW dip.

As far as meds it's fine to feed GC while using the other three you mentioned but you don't want to dose GC with them because it contains metronidazole. So adding GC to the water and metro together in the water could cause an overdose.
