Just crush a clove ofgarlic. Place in a pot add a little hot water, allow to cool add food, soak for as long as desired. It seems weird giving garlic to a fish, I know but it's just normal garlic lol
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

I got mine from an aquatics place but my DP didn't go for it. The Otos loved it though!
