They have found no scientific evidence to support that garlic is a cure, since the fish does have the ability to gain resistance (immunity) with repeated attacks from a parasite. I doubt we are dealing with a parasite here.

Ruth is very right. Garlic is not a cure but can help. It's good to note as well that not even the manufacture of "Garlic Extreme" and other Garlic drops recommend to try it for treatment against any parasite. It's made to entice picky eaters. Its also not recommended long term as they are studies the effects it causes to fish organs as its Not a natural diet for fish.

Naesco, there are many post you can look back on about the argument if garlic worked or did not work for them. There are also many on the web & research that argues this as well. I would suggest you google. You should have no problems finding it.

As this is about someone else's fish that’s ill, I would urge you not to hi-jack the post on your quest to find out about garlic for your own finding and let's get back to trying to help a fellow reefer here.

thank you.
