API Fish Treatment Stress Coat
Instantly removes chlorine and chloramines, making tap water
safe for fish. Neutralizes heavy metals. Also, replaces the natural slime
coating fish need in times of stress, such as handling, shipping or
fighting. Contains Aloe Vera, nature's liquid bandage, to prevent the loss
of essential electrolytes and protect damaged tissue against disease-causing
organisms. Helps heal torn fins and skin wounds. Use when setting up
aquarium, changing water, or adding fish.
Purpose and Benefits:
 Stress Coat forms a synthetic slime coating on the skin of
fish, replacing the natural secretion of slime that is lost during netting,
handling, shipping, fighting and other forms of stress. Stress Coat is a
patented water conditioner suitable for fresh and salt water aquariums,
water gardens and ponds. Stress Coat contains Aloe Vera, which acts as a
liquid bandage, to protect and heal damaged fish tissue. Stress Coat
instantly removes chlorine and heavy metals such as copper and zinc from tap
water. Stress Coat also removes chloramines by breaking the chlorine-ammonia
bond.
The effectiveness of Stress Coat with Aloe Vera has been
proven by independent studies conducted at the University of Georgia, School
of Veterinary Medicine. Researchers found that Stress Coat helped heal
wounds and speed tissue regrowth. Dr John Gratzek summarizes the results:
'Personally, I am satisfied with the results since my initial thoughts were
skeptical to say the least. These definite statements can be made without
equivocation: Stress Coat in no way harms aquarium fish, alters pH, or
affects the biological filter. No ammonia or nitrite was detected in the
test aquariums. The results indicated that the Stress Coat formula reduced
the wound size compared to untreated fish tissue.' Aloe Vera is high in
mucopolysaccharides, an essential component of many tissues and believed to
help in the healing process. The glycoproteins Aloctin A and Aloctin B are
also present and identified as the probable tissue-healers. |
