Nooooooo! I believe in garlic! But you know... it's not fun kissing fish with garlic breath.

Hmm, I use garlic, 2 outbreaks. You don't, 50 outbreaks. I'm not sure what to say to that....

But only if you're switching fish types, right?

Brad you now I have delt with fish alot more then you.Corral I havnt.As a fish only guy that started when every fish you bought had ick and the only treatment was pure copper sulfate.I have ran into diseases you have never seen.I have successfuly not only treated my fish but alot of other peoples when they had nobody to turn to.You are still a rookie in the fish only hobby my friend as I am in the corral hobby.I will be looking in the local pet store for a fish in bad shape and see if turning the power off for as long as possible with out killing it or torturing it.It would be great if you could cure fish with out medication.The ginger was a joke from Japarto.I may have stumbled on something maybe not.

IME - the best way to ensure you never get ick again is to better control your temperature fluctuations. The thermostats on your heaters are junk. - don't you just hate seeing them ON when you want the temp to go down??? With a proper temperature controller your fish are much less likely to get ick. Worth the money IMO.
