    +1 on the Garlic Guard.

    If you have Omnivores or Herbivores, Spirulina is great too.

    garlic guard is a quick and easy way to add some garlic to your food. I have used whole garlic from the produce section and added to it home made food. You can extract the garlic oil yourself by using a column and save it in a bottle. This does require some equipment and basic chemistry lab knowledge. However, there is a few things that you need to do but luckily most of us don't have a problem finding sea sand.

    FWIW, garlic is more beneficial as an attractant vs doing a whole lot of nutritional benefits. The fish will get more nutrients from the food itself vs additives. The main thing is to get the fish to eat.

    If you are looking for something that adds actual nutrients to the food, selcon works great at adding essential fatty acids to their diet.

    What's the whole karma thing anyways. Sorry for my ignorance.
