I wasn't trying to suggest that garlic is a great treatment for ich! I just know that many people believe it helps with the general overall health of a fish, and therefore helps the fish to rid itself of the parasite more quickly. But yeah, the only sure way of ridding your system of ich is to let it go fallow (as justinl said above).
And of course any copper-based medications wouldn't be reef safe.
