I have been doing this along time, and yes i just had a bout of ich, just five days ago-who hasn't.
I made a big newbie mistake and turned off the two koralias in my reef for two nights, thinking my hob filter would provide enough oxygen-NOT!

I lost four fish due to a stupid mistake, and yes I'm embarrassed to say the least.

Two small fish made it through but I'm almost certain that they wouldn't have if it wasn't for Kents Garlic Xtreme. I have used this product before and I believe the natural benefits of boosting the fishes immune systems with this product is amazing. After five days of loosing four fish I'm 99% sure these other two fish will survive the outbreak.

It's not a cure for all fish health problems due to reef keeper error, but it has helped save some of my fish some of the time
