Yes, for maximum effectiveness you should dose both Kanaplex and Furan-2 at the same time. I have done this many times without issue.

True fungal infections are rare in saltwater fish. If the growth is "cottony" looking, it may be lympho. It happens with some frequency, especially when a fish's immune system is lowered, like during copper treatment which is after all a poison. Lympho is a harmless virus. Just watch to see that it doesn't interfere with eating or breathing. Best treatment for lympho is pristine water conditions and very high quality mix of foods and a vitamin supplement like Selcon, etc.
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
