Is he eating? Garlic to the human anatomy is an antioxidant. Is it the same in fish? I don’t know, but garlic does enhance fish appetite. Give me a pork roast with garlic in it any day. IMO, all immune symptom responses by fish are controlled by bacteria. For me, the logical conclusion is to feed live healthy bacteria to fish. To do that, I go to the seafood market. If bivalves are just slightly open, they should be discarded. Trust your nose. It can smell h2s in the parts per billion. Your fish will love you for feeding this. Alas, there is one more benefit. The fluids from dissecting live oysters in tank reminds me of a commercial product for coral and other filter feeders, Oyster Feast.
