I didn't want to get into this but...

From what I've read (nothing scientific) I was under the impresion that all garlic did was stimulate feeding. that way a sick fish would be more likely to eat and therefore stronger to fight the illness.

Correct! It's no miracle cure - just gives 'em the munchies. Sorta like the wackytabacky for us humans. There's no harm in using it except for making your skimmer go nuts. Just don't expect it to be a cure all.
