  • Awesome Product for Healthy, Beautiful Pond and Indoor Fish
I have been using this product for 12 years in my large pond and in my 30 gallon indoor tank. My city water has chloramine in it which is fatal to fish and it keeps my fish healthy and free of all the scale issues like ich, etc. Well worth the money, I use it once a week outside in my 1,000 gallon pond and inside. My 33 pond fish lived 8 years until a storm came and knocked out the electric for 5 days. This new group of 55 fish-most born here-are growing happily and are 3 years old now. ... show more

  • Great Stuff!
I use when I add water to my pond from local sources because our water is chlorinated and very hard. It neutralizes other toxins and heavy metals to make our tap water safer. It helps reduce stress and replaces the fish's protective slime coats as well as helping to heal torn fins and other wounds. Aloe Vera is good for fish as well as people. It must be measured and used according to the instructions on the bottle because overdosing can be harmful. I always mix it with the water I'm adding and use a little less than directed to be safe. ... show more

  • Protects my pond fish.
I use Stress Coat regularly whenever I add water to the pond or after a heavy rain. It seems to put a protective coating on my fish to keep them healthy.

  • Koi enjoy a stress free lifestyle with Pondcare
I love my Koi. I love my pond. But am I going to set aside large quantities of water to replace a percentage of my pond water when I backflush? Uhhh no! So my Koi enjoy a rainlike experience when I use a sprinkler to both replace pond water and water my landscape. The sprinkler helps get rid of some chlorine and Pondcare Stress Coat takes the worries out if I don't get rid of all the nasty stuff. Hey and the Koi get some spa treatment with the other stress coat benefits. Happy Koi, Happy Owner..er Caretaker ... show more

  • GREAT PRICE!!
Can’t go wrong buying this by the gallon on Amazon. I’d go broke if I had to buy it at a pet shop.
