Highlighted Reviews
"I have a blind Comet and have tried everything to get it to eat. Finally, I found this...I drop some soaked with Garlic Guard by it’s mouth and it really helps. My other one likes it too. Needless to say, I waste a lot of food and have to do water changes all the time. Great smell and really works..."
