garlic product recommandation

[dzhuo]

i notice one of my goby has a small white dot on the tail. it looks like either ich or parasite. currently, there is only one white dot and the fish is completely "healthy". it's as active as before and eats as much as it use to. other fish don't have these white dot. i am thinking about using garlic to help fight the parasite. which garlic product do you recommand? is it completely reef safe?

thanks!

Kent Garlic Xtreme worked well for me. Had a similar thing happen to a CB angel and it was gone in a couple of days. Continued feeding kept it from coming back. No problems for over 3 mos. now. I still feed garlic about once a week to give all my tanks' inhabitants a little immune system boost.

so usually what you do is mix the food with tank water and then add 1 or 2 drop of garlic juice and then wait for the food to absort the garlic juice? how long do you wait?

thanks!

I just put a few drops on some frozen food and let it all melt together. Then I add a small amount of tank water to get a good mix going and voila! Garlic seafood delight.

alright. i will do just that. one last question, i am always worry that kind of stuff getting to the corals, do you see your coral react any differently after feeding garlic?

thanks!

Never, they don't seem to mind at all. Even in my little 20g. Hope it works out for you. My wife keeps threatening to use it for our food though, so watch out, it could become some pretty expensive garlic bread juice.
