SRC Member moxa Posted July 31, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted July 31, 2004 Hi Reefer that's what i use do that. e.g defreeze the Mysis Shrimp pour away any excessive water. pour small amount of garlic gaurd into a small contanier. freeze it and every time defreeze it before scoop the shrimp into the tank withhout together with the juice of the garlic gaurd. cheers, Moxa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member shoelevy Posted July 31, 2004 Author SRC Member Share Posted July 31, 2004 when you pour the garlic guard in...do u let the shrimp sit for a while for it to soak up the garlic or u throw it into the freezer immediately? i'm sorry but i can't catch the last part...is it with or without the garlic juice?

(for me juz dun wan to cloud the tank with the juice) Heard that Kent Marine Extreme Garlic Guard have better and more concentrae but more EX than the Seacheam (like 10+ against 25+) cheers bro, Moxa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member shoelevy Posted August 1, 2004 Author SRC Member Share Posted August 1, 2004 by the way, have you guys tried feeding tubifex worms to your fishes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member iewnehz Posted August 1, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted August 1, 2004 by the way, have you guys tried feeding tubifex worms to your fishes? i think that's no advisable as live tubiflex worm will pass germs or parasites to the fishes.. (heard frm some ppls, dunnoe tru or not) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are referring to Hikari Mysis Shrimp, do not pour away the "excessive water" or "juice". It contains added multi-vitamins! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
