Its a toughy for marine.
Ive used garlic in their food, as supposedly it puts the parasites off by the smell. It did work to a point.

Hmm, if all my fish didn't just die then I would have recommended a freshwater bath. My Sailfin Tang, the one of only two survivors (so far... ), did in fact get a freshwater bath early on.

I could also recommend feeding spirulina. Spirulina has inarguable truths on it's side, stating that it improves the immune system. It does; it worked for me (as in my body), at least. Try feeding spirulina enriched brine shrimp.
