    Medicated Foods..

    alot of fish shops do sell frozen blister packs of it, simply just defrost and feed. or you can get a liquid version which you just pour over your frozen foods, or soak dry food in. just check dosage on the bottle. yea the garlic will be fine for herbivours.

    New Tank,old Filter Media?

    move the media over, and use as much water from the old tank as possible. shouldnt be a problem. top up the rest with conditioned tap water and use some cycle/ stress zyme just for good measure.

    New Fish Hanging At Surface By Filter

    have you used any chemicals to help the tank cycle?? like Nutrafin Cycle or Stress Zyme. this stuff adds the bacteria needed to remove tese toxins into the tank. and a tiny pinch of fish food will also help as this rots away and provides an ammonia source for the bacteria to feed of and helps...
