Your opinion on the best way to use GARLIC (descriptive)

[Jonviviano]

Hey everyone, was wondering what your views are on using garlic to get fish eating/help boost immune system to get rid of ich. (descriptive ways, not two words answers )

Ive been painting it onto dried seawead, letting it dry and putting it onto a veggie clip, but i dont want to overdose on the garlic. Is there any way to tell if your using to much? It says dont exceed 2 drops perfeeding. Ive been dropping 1 drop on a 1 1/2 inch by 1 inch peice of seawead then adding it to my tank after it dry's. Any views/comments on my garlic use are appreciated. Also looking for new ideas

THANKS!:rollface:

If you feed your fish frozen food, you can mix the garlic substance in the food. First, you need to defrost the food. Next, you mix in a little amount of the garlic with the food. Afterwards, you refreeze the food.
When you need to feed your fish, just toss in one cube of the frozen food.

Easy method of adding garlic is to go down to your local nutrition center and purchase some liquid garlic .. just soak your food with a few drops of the "liquid" before feeding.

what about using a fresh piece of garlic from the grocery store?
has anyone used this and how do I use it?

I've never heard of anyone using a garlic clove. But I do know of people who use garlic extract from the grocery store. It would be a pain to grate up a clove a garlic, press it, mince it etc...
