Garlic extract is very expensive. Here is what I did when I brought my tang home. Got fresh garlic and minced it as small as I could. Spread it on a piece of wax paper. This will make the oil puddle. Then wipe the oil up with some nori and feed. Worked like a charm. The active ingredient in garlic is suspeceted to be a compound called allicin. This breaks down quickly, and is why I choose fresh garlic. Thirty six hours after feeding, the spots were gone. I fed this for about 3 weeks.
