Is Garlic Xtreme something one gets at a LFS The reason I ask is because I have two True Percs I purchased last month, which are in quarantine. They of course have ich, and are currently under treatment with KickIch, as I want to see if it will work when used correctly for the right amount of time. They are not terribly bothered, and continue to eat well. I would like to try garlic in conjunction with the medicine.
I really need to speed treatment as the tank is upstairs in my townhouse where we have heat problems in the Summer. If it does not work, I will have to move the tank downstairs soon to get away from that problem.
