Ok lets clarify something here....garlic itself doesnt really do anything for your fish medicinally....it is used as an appetite stimulant....fish like the smell of it....Im currently adding it to my food because I have a lawnmower blenny that show no signs of being interested in eating with the rest of the crew....if and when he decides that salad isnt the only thing on the menu, I will likely stop soaking with garlic(but continue soaking with selcon... because we all need our vitamins
)
Upon digging a little farther, some people have reported that their inverts seem to react poorly to garlic, so I suppose it is entirely within the rehlm of possibility that garlic could be to blame for the shrimps demise....its also a possibility that your bottle has gone "bad" as suggested earlier.
