  Why are you keeping garlic in an aquarium? They’re terrestrial pets.

    Aquariums use mechanical, chrmical, and biological filtration in a cycle to keep the water clean. Surface area matters, especially the biological part, because it provides more space for beneficial bacteria to colonize so they can break down waste.

    Not regularly, but I posted a link in another comment: it helps fish health and with parasites.

    My comment was related surface area and bio-filtration in aquarium keeping because surface area is important there.

  Depends on the dish.if I put in 1/2 head of garlic in per person I won’t grind it.

  This is like asking what kind of onion or potato you prefer. If it doesn’t depend on the dish you should be locked up for you are a menace to society.
