Questions
Can I Use with purigen
- Yes, you may use API Stress Coat with Purigen.
Helpful?
Can I use this in addition to the beta water conditioner when I do a water change or would it be too much to use the tress coat additive on top of the beta water conditioner? Should it be one or the other or can I use both?
- I actually use both. We have softened water here and I don't want it to effect fish. I also want to calm my fish with the stress coat. Not sure if it's the correct thing to do or not. I just go with my gut.
Helpful?
Can you use this with fish you intend to eat?
- Designed to treat water. Shouldn't affect fish other than make water safe for fish.

will this hurt my amano shrimp?
- It is safe for shrimp. My amano and ghost shrimps do just fine.
Helpful?
During a water change, should I calculate the Stress Coat dosage based on new water added, or based on the entire tank volume? Thanks, Charlotte
- I calculate the dosage based on my total tank volume. You can't really overdo it, and it calms the fish after a water change.
Helpful?
Would this be ok to use in a community tank with shrimps in it? Thanks!
- Yes, it should be. All it does is reinforce the natural outer layer of protective mucous that fish and other marine life have on them to repel parasites. I don't think it will harm the shrimp. I have three blue Nerite snails in my tank and they've been there for years, dutifully cleaning the tank, and have never been bothered by it.

Can I use this for a hermit crab?
What pH will the water be if I add enough for a 5 gallon tank
- Should not change the ph of your water. Only removes or neutralizes chlorine.
Helpful?
can i use quick start and stress coast at the same time when i change water? how much do i need?
- You don't need to use quick start when you use stress coat. The measurement is on the bottle.
