How to enrich food?

[AquaKnight]

I was wondering when everyone says "I enriched my food with garlic," what garlic do you use and how exactly do you add it to your food? In specifics, I want to add it some live brine shrimp, for my newly acquired Dispar Anthias. Do I just put some brine in a bowl, then pour in some diced garlic in a jar? Is there a liquid or better alternative?

Also, for actually enriching the food with something benefical, what products are there? I think I remember something called Seaclone or Seacon (sp.?) Xtreeme? Would I do it the same way as the garlic? I'm just trying to get my bearing on this subject.

Selcon. You can either soak food in it or feed it to brine shrimp. The directions are on the bottle. Vita-Chem is another vitamin mixture I like to use.

I never fed garlic to brine. Do they like it?

Soak some food in a little bit of garlic extract.

For some reason fish go berserk over garlic... Kent makes a Garlic Liquid that you can use to soak your food in... Or you can just use the juice in a jar of chopped garlic... One of the benefits is that Ick and other parasites seem to not like to be in fish that eat garlic... I guess its kind of like mosquitos and us... It gets in their/our bloodstream and the parasites don't like the taste...
