CAUTION: Malachite green can interfere with biological filtration at dosages above 0.10 ppm. Malachite green is toxic to some kinds of scaleless fishes, including catfishes, loaches, small characins (tetras). Care should be taken with sensitive fishes- dwarf cichlids, gouramis, livebearers, barbs. Malachite green can permanently color the silicone sealant in aquariums.
