How to cure Ich Garlic Treatment For fresh water Ich 

People are so hard on you. Thanks for sharing. I'm going and get some garlic

Thank you for this information! I am holistic in nature and I hate to use chemicals in my tank. I am new and having fish in aquariums but I'm experienced and having fish outdoors in a pond. Please continue with your videos, I loved it!

thank you very much for the remedy. i got a swordtail male 3 days ago. yesterday I saw ick dots on his tail. I immediately mixed raw shrimp with garlic and gave him, he ate quickly. then I added some salt dissolved in water, 1/4 tablespoon for 5 gallons. the water in the tank started to smell of garlic, because I gave food to the fish. So in the evening I did water change (just fresh water). Today I see no ich on his tail, just a trace maybe, but not really seen. I am very glad it worked

I order to release the active ingredient of garlic let it sit in open air for 10 min after you crush it. Then the Allicin will be released which is what you want.

Dude you having that huge goldfish in the tank with the cichlids is the coolest thing I've seen in the hobby thus far. 😂 You have to show more videos on how the cichlids are getting along with the goldfish. How can you just show us that like it's no big deal lol. This video give true meaning to the word hobby in "the hobby."

This does work. I tried this after a fish came down with ick. Although i did directly dose my tank with a clove. Mistake bc i left it in for too long and my whole room smelled like garlic. I also followed this recipe for food. Worked very well. No more ick. Will continue to do this.

sir, i will have dropped the garlic in tank and they are smelling like garlic and I want to ask you this smell are good or bad for my fishes???plz plz plz tell me...

Using a net daily to scoop out uneaten food or getting a skimmer for the tank will help too.

Hi, How often do we need to repeat this garlic treatment? if the tank is 360Liters? how many cloves ?

So what happened did your fish pull through?

Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, which is the freshwater species of "ich" does not have a "super" version. I'm not trying to be rude or dog on your video here, so please understand that. In fact, it seems your fish have or had if they're still alive, lymphocystis which is actually an untreatable virus and not a protozoan like ich is. Now the signs of lymph can in fact come and go, such as providing great water quality and with a good diet, however, it will never go away. Now, the reason I'm typing this here is because you have a decent sized channel and don't think you'd like to give people bad information, in which can discredit your channel in the community. Ich is a very easy and treatable disease to conquer as well, and if caught early enough will generally result in very few, if any casualties. Hope you understand, and if you have any questions feel free to message me.

That works fine if they are eating but if they are not then what do you do?

That goldfish rules the tank!! hahaha Right on.

hope it worked out... tank is filthy thats your main issue.

garlic work with me , garlic with food + raise the temp, and after the white spots are gone on the fish i used salt and of course water changes

Hey so did the fish survive...?

Thank you prefer to use natural.Did you leave skin on the garlic.. please turn your volume up but great

I turned my heat up and mixed Garlic juice in with there food and now my fish are clear up they were covered with ich I caught when I lost two fish and didn’t know why I’m new at this but I’m learning so I going to keep feeding the garlic for a while in the food to make sure they don’t get it back!

can i mixed the garlic with fish flakes????

I have a ten gal with a male & female betta fish, 2 zamoria, and a mystery snail. The only fish that has a spot is the zamoria. Small fish they eat flakes so do you think grinding it up into almost liquid or just just putting super small pieces in there?

Natural antibiotics, I don't want to use chemicals in our Aquaponic.

as long as its in da water it works they dnt have eat it but thanks so much it work's

do u have salt in ur tank works better than anything

Is the garlic good for snails too? My glofish got ich, and the petco guy tested my water and said there is no bacteria in it and gave me the little bottle of it and said i dont need a medice. But im unsure. I also got omega one food with garlic to hope it works

I would've loved seeing you feed your fish with that

My fish have little ich on them and they ate the Garlic instantly with any fish food

For real though, why does your tank have an orange glow to it? IS that the colour of your water or is that a lighting thing?

I love garlic 🧄. Always drop some in ALL my TANKS...

Thanks bro your a life saver

Yeah if a goldfish gets big enough it'll become as much of an ass-kicker as any oscar or cichlid. that's why i love them xD

thank you sm for this . Hope my neon tetras get well

Is the fresh extract garlic is ok or not

it works omg i used it garlic

Thanks mate I appreciate the video it really helped

My big cichlid(female I think) had what looks like powdery dust on her.(very fine). She eats out of my fingers anyways. So I put some mashed garlic on my fingertip and she loved it. none of the other fish have the dusty appearance(touch wood) but a couple of others ate it. A few spat it out however.

It does work altho the cons are you and your tank will smell like garlic. I tried using natural remedies for my fish disease and so far none died. I stopped treating them with chemical medications because i always lose some fish that can't handle how strong the medication are and it's pretty sad if you lose a fish that you treated like a family member.

If you can't treat ich, you have no business caring for fish.. tank isn't "doomed" lol

you probably got ich from live feeder fish lol

this works for my fresh water gold fish. fresh garlic minced mixed with their regualar food. i cranked the heat up for 5 days and fed them a bunch of this. and i changed the water a bunch. all in stages of course. ie, raise the temp slowly and change only some of the water each time. they dislike garlic but once you mix in their food thwey will eat it.

will this work for tropical fish such as platy fish? i use tropical flakes.

Thanks will try this for my betta fish

Can you do this with plattys and moly’s?

but how about the ich that is in the tank? how do you remove it?

Thanks for sharing a nice tip for aquarium fish hobby.

nice video man...thankz

Shouldn't there be a way to just dose the tank?

My fish died, why? I put garlic, raised the heat...

Can I feed my Betta garlic?

Thank you

Very informative video. Thank you so very much

How would you do it with small gish

wil angelfish eat this? my entire tank has ICH :(

My young electric blue jack dempsey is just blatantly refusing to eat anything

My goldfishes adore garlic.

It was my experience that to add garlic smells great to the fish and that it does no harm the fish but that a cure is not evident. However, I did notice that it did not continue to spread. I may say that it would work as a preventative measure but for sure not a cure. I had to after 7 days of what I call an overdose of garlic seek some ich treatment medicine. Garlic did not seem to cure them but rather stop further spread. So is this a cure? MY answer is no but it may work well as a preventive measure.

Thank you brother.

Over stocked tank! Even if the treatment works, it won’t be too long before the fishes get ick again from stress.

Thank you for sharing this sir

Im doing this cause we cant get meds in Canada. I mix mine and let it dry in my grow tent. Mine have a nasty parasite that they poop out white 💩. I hope it goes away soon cause I have some nice fish I grew out.

Will garlic kill live plants?

Your tank is over stocked

My septic is cleaner then that tank in that water the fish are doomed. So sad

Hey are your JD's male or female?

Good on ya Mate.

At 1:52 the goldfish has an ulcer on the body

Will it kill the plants?

Fish look like in a world of pain

I have the same crap right now that killed almost of my fish so far

I loved this dish, and the preparation was very easy. Im going to try it. I will cook and post on my channel that we also make very good fish recipes using garlic. Congratulations! (Me encanto este plato, y la preparacion muy facil. Voy a probarlo. Lo cocinare y publicare en mi canal que tambien hacemos muy buenas recetas de pescado usando ajo. Felicidades!)

Your tank looks dirty man.

but you shouldn't have let them get that bad clean tank often with that many fish i have a catfish featherfin and he has a spot on his back by tail i got on it quick that is paiinful for them also tree tea oil ick meds at petco work good smells like sage thyme when you put it in all natural

Man my molly they have Ick but they dond eat the garlic.. What else can i do?

I stopped feeding feeders another way of getting ich

Bro i just put garlic in my tank since my guppies got ick after two days garlic is gone pleco’s ate em all 😂 i guess its alright

Gosh, look at the detritus in your tank! It’s filthy and way too overstocked

Will Molly eat

My fish arnt eating it

Will it work for white poop in my oscar?

Will garlic kill the lice over my fish??

lol i thought you threw in dog food

That doesn't look like ich to me

This guy isn't answering any questions... Why? because his fish died.

I thought was fish recipe 🤣

Shouldn't have added tap water. Chlorine! Use tank water.

I use garlic in a jar it works for me about six to seven days ich is gone

The best method to cure ich and never get it is to quarantine your fish. Tha works 100% percent of the time. no need for garlic😃

You're one messy guy.

It doesn't work guys trust me my fish died from this method pls listen to me guys

What's all that shit floating in the tank. Nasty tank. Get better water flow.

FILTHY crowded tank. Inhumane

Go to 3mins

Lots of wrong facts here. 1. Ich is always in a fish tank. 2 Ich doesn't care if you heat your tank, what it does is it hastens the life cycle for you to get rid of it sooner, if you're treating for it. 3 you're feeding your fish tap water infused food. Then your tank is filthy... so is your kitchen and utensils, and your finger nails, so damn lazy you couldn't even peel the garlic or use treated water for crying out loud... just give the fish away already...

Yet another ridiculous video full of misinformation.
