I had an outbreak of internal parasites from a bad batch of fish shipped to me, and I started soaking there medicine in this. I heard it also helps their immune system, and well, it does seem to make their colors even brighter! Beware, it does have a STRONG garlic smell, - do not smell it directly lol you will end up on the floor!! - With that said though, I have noticed my corydoras and pleco have an easier time smelling their food after soaking it in this, so I started soaking food in this along with Vita-Chem mixed together at every meal :)

I've used Seachem Garlic Guard in conjuction with Selcon for the past 2 years with no fish diseases in my 60 gallon saltwater tank. My Kole Tang has never had ich nor HLLD. I soak all foods - Rod's Herbivore Blend, Spectrum NLS pellets, Formula 2 frozen, frozen mysis and brine shrimp with spiralina, and nori for 20-30 minutes prior to feeding 1-2 x week only. 2-3 drops on food is all that is needed maybe once a week. Too much garlic may not be good for fish. The garlic extract is powerful smelling so make sure to tightly close the cap.

If I ever see a little bit of Ick on a fish I start dosing a small amount to the tank. Nothing seems to mind it, in fact, some fish swim through and suck it in to eat it! I had one fish looking pretty bad and I soaked some flake food in the garlic. Few days later no Ick.Haven't had an Ick break out since!Also, I have 3 reef tanks, two in one room, one at my desk in work. And I've never seen s vampire at any of them. Great for pouring around your bed too.

I recently purchased Seachem's Garlic Guard and I was very excited to try this product. I have a couple of finicky Bichir's, so I was curious to see how well this product would work. I soaked a cod fillet in some Garlic Guard and my Bichirs went C-R-A-Z-Y for it! I was surprised to see they didn't wait for the cod to fall to the bottom of the tank, they swan towards it to devour it! Great job Seachem, you amazed me with yet another amazing product!

Reasonably priced and it does seem to improve health and appetite in marine fish. They say soak fish food in this liquid but I sprinkle it on to cubes of frozen fish food before putting the food back in the freezer. When its time to feed the fish I put a cube of frozen food into one of those perforated plastic fish feeder devices and the fish crowd around eating the food as it slowly thaws and filters out of the small holes in the feeder.

This got my fish to eat! I had fresh baby brine shrimp that I had leftover from my guppy breeding endeavor and after a week of only eating that, my fish became extremely addicted to the quality. I sprinkle Hikari Micro-Pellets into a tablespoon and add about a milliliter of Seachem Garlic Gaurd, swirled it around, waited about 30s so the food can absorb it a little (makes it sink faster), and feed it to the fish. Works like a charm.

Put a splash of this with any fish food and the fish will go for it. Was struggling to get my MBU puffer to eat cockles, with no shell as he’s still a bit small, wouldn’t even touch it, kept to snails, brine shrimp and bloodworms, when I soaked it in this stuff he has actually started to nibble at it, so it does work. Not to sure about health wise but definitely attracts the fish to eat. Plus it’s SeaChem so no issues with quality.

I have a fish with swim bladder disease and she won't eat a whole pea so I make a sludge with the peas and this flavor and then attempt to hand feed her with a small syringe (no needle) - sometimes this works, other times not. As far as my other fish, none would eat peeled peas until I soaked them in this - so I hope to "keep them regular" and prevent any future constipation problems that come with eating mostly a dried food diet.

Garlic guard is good to have around in case of emergencies. I used it when my display tank came down with ich. It worked well as a supplement to medication, since I needed a less intense medication that was safe for invertebrates. The garlic guard seemed to bolster the fishes' immune systems, helping to get rid of the ich. It was also a good price for the big bottle. I recommend the use of all of Seachem's products.

Bottle on small side so I would buy at least two. Smells great. They did not go crazy over it like I though,but maybe in time. Knowing that garlic is great for the digestive system I will probably continue soaking food in it. So I will continue to purchase. It does go quickly tho. P.S. they didn’t avoid food soaked in it but it did not work with soaking vegetables like I truly hoped for. Again, maybe in time.

Love mixing this stuff with my frozen mealworms for my meat eaters, it even got my finicky eater out on first use! (African ghost knife) love this stuff for post ich treatment too and as an extra treat water additive the day before a water change. They love to swim in it!!! Safe for direct dosing. No need to dilute. Beware if you have an open hooded system. Like me. It does make your system reek of garlic.

Sometimes new purchases and fish being treated for disease are reluctant to feed. I was very skeptical of this product but I decided to try it when I had a couple of sick fish that wouldn't eat, possibly from the medication. I soaked their food in this and sure enough, they started to eat again. I have also used it to soak nori for a yellow tang that didn't seem to understand that nori was food.

I mix some frozen food and some flake into a shot glass with Garlic Guard as the liquid medium. 20 minutes later I have a food mixture that all of my fish absolutely love. And I get zero waste sitting on the bottom because even the bottom dwellers seek this stuff out. Plus there's all the suggestion that Garlic is good for their immune system. Love it!

I have used a couple garlic supplements. This is not my favorite but does the job well. Fish go for it. I love how much you get for such a cheap price. The downside? Well the smell was... a bit off. Yes garlicky but there was something else and not the most pleasant. I was a little cautious at first about it but have seen no I'll effects.

Really happy I got this product. I originally purchased only as a preventative measure for its anti-parasitic properties, but my betta leapt at his freeze dried brine shrimp that I had soaked in this product! I was honestly afraid he was going to jump out of his tank to get more food after I fed him. I'm glad it serves double purposes.
