DESCRIPTION SECTION

BENEFITS:

Removes chlorine, chloramines and heavy metals to make tap water safe for fish. Contains Aloe Vera, which promotes healing and regeneration of damaged fish tissue and forms a synthetic slime coat to help prevent electrolyte loss. Proven to reduce fish stress, which can result from changing water, poor water quality and handling fish. High stress levels can cause fish to lose their slime coat and be more susceptible to disease.

STRESS COAT is proven to reduce fish stress by 40%.

INDICATIONS & USAGE SECTION

WHEN TO USE:

When setting up an aquarium, adding or changing water, when adding new fish, or when fish are damaged by injury or disease.

DOSAGE & ADMINISTRATION SECTION

DIRECTIONS:

Add 5 ml per 10 U.S. gallons (38 L) of water or 1/2 cup (120 ml) for each 240 U.S. gallons (912 L) of aquarium water. Double the dose to replace slime coat and to repair damaged skin and fins.

REFERENCES SECTION

TIP:

Use STRESS COAT together with API STRESS ZYME to assure good water quality and a healthy, clean aquatic environment.
