I heard that if you soak the oscar's food in crushed garlic juice that it can help kill parasites and boost there immune system. Is this true or false?

Also what are some other home remedies that you guys and women use?

hmmmm???? never heard of this
but i wont dismiss it, garlic can be beneficial to some pets but is it toxic to others?

wont it make ur tank smell?

garlic is very good for boosting immune system though.
other pets are my colt (Freddo Frog), my staffy (Tank) and my boxer x,(Steph)

2) Add a couple drops of garlic juice to each pellet. This gives of a pungent smell that hopefully the oscar won't be able to resist.

tricks in giving your fishes dosage of garlic.

i used to give my o a treat of beef heart every now and then.
i do some experiment in inserting strip of fresh garlic in a
strip of beef heart. i am amazed how my fishes grabbed them
without any rejection.

just to sharing this idea in case you needed it.

Hmm I think I will try this. I don't think I will have to worry about him not liking it, the only thing I have ever seen him spit out is poop and gravel
