I love garlic

[happymidgetpaul]

I picked him up for $25 at my lfs (he was marked as a fahaka). However, I couldn't get this little guy to eat anything, and found worm looking things in his crap. Soaked his shrimp in garlic, and he tried it, within a day or two, he's starting to plump up, and is swimming around lots now, no more worm crap :D

That's quite a fast comeback for the guy! I've never heard of garlic actually curing IPs. I guess if he keeps his weight on, he should be ok. Keep an eye on his poo though.

[happymidgetpaul]

I didn't either, but I'm very pleased with the results :)

[happymidgetpaul]

Oh, and if he happens to lose all the weight, what is the best way to go about treating ips for this puffer?
