Default color enhancement and garlic?

I started regularly feeding my tanks garlic soaked food in November to treat a sick clown. After it had regained it health I stopped feeding the garlic enhanced food.

I started feeding again in mid December because there was alot of activity going on in the tank; reaquascaping, a couple new fish etc. I've been feeding ever since then and when I compare digital pictures between then and last week I realize there is a startling change.

My two tomato clowns have changed for a tomato orange to what is almost a blood red if not burgendy-red. My lemonpeel angel's blue and yellow coloring is is twice as bright as when I purchased her, my cleaners have grown tremendously (they shed probably once a week if not every other week), and my sandsifter star has started to regro a limb that I was positive would never regrow.

Anyone else had any "amazing" results with garlic? Any particular brand? I have alot of people asking me how my cleaners grew so large in such short period of time (from 1/4 inch to almost 1 1/2 in not even 4 months). Anyone think of anything else that I could be doing that is causing these changes in my tank?
