Reddit mentions of Seachem Garlic Guard 500-Ml

I've always wanted to try this product in this sort of scenario. Might be worth checking out.

4 pellets a day or 4 pellets per feeding session? I only fed my betta boy 2-3 pellets twice a day, so that's not too bad. Better to underfeed a little than over!

For blind/visually impaired fish, it's best to stay to a pattern. Try to feed him in the same spot every day; they have little suction-cup feeding rings you can buy online to help with this, or you could probably DIY your own too. You may be able to train him to react to a signal (such as lightly tapping the water or something) that he can connect to being fed. Alternatively, you can get a small breeding box to put him in to feed him, but that may stress him out.

Another thing you can do is dip/soak his pellets in garlic juice, which will help him be able to smell his food and also acts as a small appetite stimulant if you feel like he is not eating enough. You can mince your own garlic and put it in tank water in a separate container to create a dilute garlic solution, or you can by pre-minced garlic in a jar and use the fluid from that, or you can buy garlic guard.

I used to break it down and throw in the tank, but it got messy after a few days. I now use Seachem Prime Garlic Guard (link below). I use a dose syringe to place some drops on my Goldfish’s food. I also cut one garlic clove in half and throw it in the tank water to hover.
