So I know some of you add garlic to your food prior to feeding. How do you do it? Where do you get it and what brand(s) do you use? How long do you soak you food? Do you just soak your frozen foods or do you also add it to your dry foods?

I use regular garlic powder. Sprinkle a bit on frozen foods and soak for an hour or two, then drain

I use sachem garlic and put whatever mix of frozen food in it my fish like, I let it sit for a half hour then I poor the food and garlic into a mini ice cube tray and refreeze it, this way i don't have to soak the food every time, the fish love it and it helps to keep them healthy! I then thaw 3 mini ice cubes and feed every day.

Brightwell garlic power. add food (mysis, pellet and flake) until it is all absorbed and then add. Typically two droppers full per feeding.

Thanks for all of the feedback. I like the idea of making my own but for now I'm trying the Kent brand since that was what I could find on short notice.
