Seachem Stress Guard VS API Stress Coat

What Do You Think Works Better With Wounds/Stress?

melafix.

It depends on the application. Stress Coat is nice because it's a water conditioner with some healing and stress-reducing properties. StressGuard contains colloids that bind to exposed proteins in wounds, and acts as an antiseptic as well.

Stress coat is a slime coat replacement, which means it can actually inhibit normal gill function if overdosed. You don't have to worry about this with StressGuard.

My personal preference is SeaChem StressGuard.

I use stress coat, but in conjunction with melafix.
