soak your frozen food in some then drain of the garlic juice and then feed the food

i use kyolic extract, you can get it from gnc(health stores) it is odorless and a bottle lasts a long ime, since you only use a couple of drops every 2 weeks
and like mentioned, put a couple of drops in the food and soak it before feeding(but no need to drain, if you do it that way)

Along with keeping vampires away it also boosts their immune systems and helps them fight off fish diseases like ich...some start feeding it if a fish gets a light case. I feed to my fish a couple times a week. Garlic will not cure advanced cases of disease. If you have problems with that the disease forum of this board has lots of good advise. It is also reported to help stimulate the appetite of new fish that don't seem to want to eat. HTH

So with the garlic: it not a daily thing to do just a few times a week is good? and is that with every feeding in that day or just once? Thanks

once every 10 to 14 days
