Will this food work for skinny disease

Adding garlic extract to the foods you know they like is a much better plan, takes a while to work and you'll smell like garlic all day if it gets on your hands, but it's the best cure/preventative for internal parasites that I'm aware of. All of my fish have garlic in their diet at least 3 times a week
 
Is it flakes or what? My clowns eat pretty much everything in sight.

I was thinking of mixing some panacur (the other wormer) with some garlic extract, then mixing it in with that food and feeding it for 3 days a week for 2-3 weeks.
 
Its great if you can get them to eat it. I had to starve my CL's over the weekend before they would take it. Garlic works great, too & its much easier to get them to eat it.

Damn maybe my cl's are more voracious than others??? They practically attack anything that falls into the water. I've caught them nibbling on my hand while cleaning the tank.

They eat the squash, pumpkin, and mango meant for my L200, try to steal Krill from my aro, come to the surface for flakes, etc. lol

Same with my loaches, but this was just one of those foods that they just did NOT take. Oh, and cucumber for some very strange reason - even though many here will tell you their loaches looooove cucumber.
 
Well i ordered the food, panacur C, and will use some garlic extract. Probably mixing the pancur C with the garlic. Then mixing that liquid paste with the food. Then feeding for 3 days, following day change the water. Repeat weekly for the next 2 weeks.
 
Sounds like a good plan... Yea, CL's are very strange eaters. Not overly picky, but mine went from devouring zucchini to hating it, then went from hating cucumber to loving it... Sometimes they prefer to eat from the surface with the Gouramis & sometimes they just want to sift sand for scraps. The only sure bets I have with them are Bloodworms (any kind) & frozen Spirulina Brine Shrimp. Beyond that, its anyone's guess what they are gonna be in the mood for.
