I'm just asking this as a future reference. Are channa sensitive to medication? Because I know some fish need the meds cut by half because of how sensitive to meds they are.
 
I don't know personally, but I would try to avoid using any meds with these fish. Always better to prevent, than to cure... first, if possible?

But if you do have to treat, then I would do a half dose of what is recommended. Then observe to see how it reacts to it.

Which medication products are you actually considering btw? I recommend never to use "Clout", if ever treating for parasites.
 
The usual applies do not use salt or any saline based medication in the past for cloudy eye and wounds I have used methylene blue but this normally requires take the fish out and quarantine it as the stuff is old school and turns every thing blue( Methylene blue is also used as a dye to stain certain parts of the body before or during surgery) but the plus is I have used it several times in the past and it has worked.
