Seachem Garlic Extract. Use it to pre-soak pellets. A a natural & healthy way to clear internal parasites.

I would say should use once in a while to maintain fish health and maybe cure pre-illness (internal parasites, bloated stomache etc). Guess not as a medication to cure advance stages.

Had been using it for my plecos to maintain health and clear their tummy once in awhile.

Highly recommeded product by the pleco kakis in the forum.

i use a product call "new life spectrum- thera a" it is supposed to contain quite a high concerntration of garlic in it. it is also meant to be a natural prevention and cure for external and internal parasites.

i've fed this to my ranchus with good results. i've also noticed on initial1-2day feedings that fish expell white poo, commonly with worms in it. i've not only tried this on gf but also on cichlids with similar results of white poo not long after feeding.

i can recomend this product 100%, as well as can confidently say garlic is beneficial to fish. i've seen breeding rooms with clumps of raw garlic in the sumps.

the only downside i see is it can be REALLY smelly.

hope that helps.
