Yvonne Nash –
Used StressGuard before moving my betta fish to a new tank. The fish seemed calmer and showed no signs of stress during transport. No clogging in the filter either. Good product for handling fish.
Alison Clarkson –
Helped reduce ammonia spikes after fish were moved. The fish recovered faster than expected. Only downside is it doesn’t work with copper-based treatments.
Jason Johnston –
Great for healing minor wounds on fish. Applied after a small injury and noticed faster recovery. Works well without affecting filter performance.
Joe Wallace –
I used it during a fish swap and the fish stayed more active. No issues with the filter. Would recommend to anyone handling fish frequently.
