    Garlic med

    Was reading that thread the other day and now I can't find it. What is name of product, name of manufacturer and who sells it? Sounds like a good thing to keep on hand, just in case. Thanks.

    Thanks, I'm going to get some but it obviously won't come with instructions. Sounds like people use it as food soak, not direct into tank. Is that right?

    David,
    I used freeze dried blod worms, they sell it in the lfs as beta food.
    I soaked it for about a half hr then fed.
    The fish absolutely devoured the stuff, you will have no trouble feeding this to your fish. I used it on tangs, an Angel, royal gramma, damsel, and a Grunt.
    This method is A - OK in my book !!
    I bought 2 large bottles of the stuff, still have some left .
    I fed my fish once a day , every day for a couple 3 weeks and that was it.
    Good Luck !!!!

    That kyolic stuff works fine, but i just take two cloves of garlic about a half cup of RO water blend and then strain it through a coffee filter. Little more work, but alot cheaper then the 15 or so bucks for a that tiny bottle at GNC.
    I have the mind of a 5 year old and own a fire extinquisher you cant imagine the things i do.

    I think the fresh cloves are more efective also Sgt. There is an article somewhere suggesting this, I'll try to dig it up......Mike
