API stress coat…good product ?

[Scaggs1117]

Whatsup fellas….so when adding fish, i know the net disturbs the slime cost on the fish. Is StressCoat by API a good product? And if so is their dose valid? I ask because it’s A slimy product and I don’t know will that mess up the water composition? And also how long does the actual product last in the water? I have two clownfish at the moment along with mixed coral and inverts.

I use a plastic stainer to move my fish into the tank (it's actually easier and less stressful for the fish than it sounds), and have never found the need for stress coat.

That’s actually not a bad idea

I’m surprised that method isn’t talked about more
