You need to phone your lfs to make sure they have a product called garlic extreme or buy some garlic extract from a pharmacy.
Soak dry food(because it absorbs better) soaked in garlic.
Feef only garlic soaked food and feed very often. The idea is to get as much garlic into the fish as quickly as possible.

garlic can help healthwise as they try to fight the parasite off. Personally I'd had enough of the headaches and pulled all fish into qt with cupramine while the tank ran fallow for 8 weeks. Sucked to go thru but now that its done nothing gets in without checking into the qt hotel and my fish have never been happier!!
