Seachem GarlicGuard – Garlic Appetite Enhancer for Fish

GarlicGuard is an all-natural garlic-scented flavour and odour enhancer formulated for both freshwater and saltwater fish. Research has shown that many fish are naturally attracted to the scent of garlic, making it an effective tool for encouraging finicky or stressed eaters to feed. Simply soak any food in GarlicGuard before feeding to stimulate the interest of reluctant fish, including notoriously selective species such as discus. GarlicGuard is completely safe for reef and planted aquariums.

• All-natural garlic formula to attract finicky and selective eaters
• Suitable for freshwater and saltwater fish
• Safe for reef and planted aquariums
• Compatible with medicated foods to encourage feeding during treatment

The Science

Fish rely heavily on their ability to detect chemical signals dissolved in the water to locate food. Garlic contains naturally occurring compounds that many fish species respond to strongly, triggering feeding behaviour even in individuals that have lost interest in food due to stress, illness, or an unfamiliar diet. GarlicGuard harnesses this response by coating food in a garlic scent that travels through the water column, drawing the attention of fish before they even make visual contact with the food.
