My goldfish had a sort bread type mould. I dont have big tank ive got 2 goldfish.

I was advised to use "protozin" whitespot and fungus....so i did....

I followed the treatment as instructed (use on days 1,2,3 and 6) but the fungus stuff still hasnt cleared. What do i do?

Thanks a bunch for the help :)
 
Big water changes to get rid of the protozin, as you can only use one chemical at a time.

I would opt for methylene blue to kill off fungus or a treatment containing malachite green.

How big is the tank, how often do you change the water, how much filtration do you have?

You need to cure the root cause to cure the problem. Adding chemicals to an overcrowded space, just reduces oxygen, causes stress, weakens immune systems and perpetuates the problem.
 
it could be fungus or it could be velvet i would suggest you check if protozin is used on velvet.if the fish has an open sore it can take 2 / 3 weeks to run its cycle
