Medicated Foods..

[darrel69]

After having one of my fish get sick recently, ive been doing some research on deseases & what'not.. anyway from a few articles ive read, it seems a good idea to have some medicated foods on hand for such cases but i cant find any anywhere. Well, i can but only on american web stores. Are they not available here in uk ?

iv only ever seen medicated koi foods in specialist shops.
i feed garlic frozen foods and this helps keep infection and paracites away, just as a preventitive.
other than that im not sure

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.
