    Melafix is fine for minor ailments, like scrapes or damaged fins, but it's not suitable for serious problems.

    Well the two most serious problems regularly encountered with discus seems to be Gill and Body Flukes which it treated with Praziquantal, and Hexemita which is treated with an antibiotic called Metronidazole which is obtained from your vet.
