I have a 10g tank that is cycling (I KNOW, I KNOW ) :( w/ 3 dwarf frogs and a betta fish. The betta had torn fins and I was using BettaFix to help him with that and it was working quite well. I used it for 3 days until I did a water change and put the frogs in the tank. Now that I haven't been using it, the betta's fins aren't healing as quickly. Should I continue to use it or would this affect the frogs?
 
It normally says on the bottle or on the website the company owns if it's harmful to amphibians. But isn't that stuff made mainly from some sort of tree leaves? I doubt it would harm frogs, but i wouldnt risk it. frogs arent too hardy IMO.
you could try using some Aloe Vera, found in most water conditioners. it wont help heal them quicker, but It replaces the slime coating on fish, helping prevent disease.
good luck!

Edit: I found a bottle of that stuff. no website link or anything, but perhaps you can look up the ingredients on the web? might have some info concerning it.
