I used API Stress Coat Plus when moving my betta to a new tank. The fish seemed calmer and showed no signs of stress during the transition. It worked well with the water change routine and the fish healed quickly after a minor injury.

After adding new guppies, I used the product before transferring them. The fish were less frantic and adapted faster. I noticed a smoother transition compared to previous times without it.

Used it every time I do a water change. My community tank has been stable, and the fish don’t seem stressed during handling. The slime coating effect is visible and seems to help with recovery.

It’s effective for reducing stress during netting and transport. My fish don’t jump or act panicked when I handle them now. I’ve used it for over a month and haven’t seen any negative effects.
