Galic soak

Post by nehctik »

What is meant when people say garlic soak? Do you chop garlic and put it in with the food to soak before feeding?

You could go that route, or purchase a commercial brand product (i.e.: Seachem Garlic Guard).

I honestly don't know about the smell, as I just go the old fashioned way and buy organic garlic for that kind of purpose... Had to do that a few weeks ago actually with my clownfish.
