Terry,

My experiance using garlic (McCormick garlic juice) has been inconclusive at best. When my powder blue tang showed spots of ick(?) treating the food appeared to help. After he came down with a full blown case of ick 6 months later the garlic had zero effect. Perhaps the spots being treated aren't ick, the treatment is only effective against light infestations, or it loses it's effectiveness.

Application was daily for a week soaked into his daily nori. With the fullblown case daily for three weeks, until I finally caught him. The ick was unabated for the entire three weeks. btw, he's now in a q tank undergoing hyposalinity.
