    When ever I get a new fish, the entire tanks eats all their food soaked in garlic for the first week. No ifs ands or buts. I figure I'll just get a jump start on giving them what they need to get through the stress.

    I think I may have had my first bout with ich and not even realized it.... I spend like 45 minutes watching clownfish at my lfs and picked out the most healthy, active one. I got him home, dog jumped on me with bag in hand, tearing bag so I had to dump him in the tank right away. A day later he had a white spot on his nose but I'd been feeding the tank garlic soaked food with garlic on garlic, LMAO. Spot was gone as quicly as it came.
