yeah you can. bacteria and fungus treatments are often used concurrently. the low dose melaleuca in bettafix, in my opinion, really is only useful as a bacterial treatment even though it says it's useful against bac and fungus. but because fungus can make fish vulnerable to internal bac infections it gets people to treat early/preventatively. if you're using it only as a bacterial preventative, you could always lower the bettafix dose if you're worried.

BettaFix is just a weaker version of MelaFix. To avoid the stress, I'd stop the BettaFix, do a water change then treat for the fungus.

Yes, you can but add the meds very slowly. I would suggest pre mixing it in a large container and changing a small amount of his water with it every hour until it is at a full dose. Continue with constant small water changes of pre-mixed meds for the duration of the treatment. Poor water quality probably caused him to get sick and you need to correct that problem at the same time.

Call the toll-free number of Jungle Labs. It should be on the bottle. They have been very helpful to me in the past!

I would do one at a time. Just to be on the safe side. I would alternate treatments or pick the most important one. Which ever is most pressing.
