summer rathman: This bottle is a must have for our small about 250 gal goldfish pond This size bottle lasts us over a yr normally. Price hasn't changed much over the yrs so that's a plus since everything has sky rocketed in price!

mariah grimes: I have a 125 gallon pond with 3 medium sized goldfish (4-7") and it loses water due to evaporation in the summer. I use this (1/2 teaspoon added to my 3 gallon pot) as needed to top off my pond level. I've never had an issue and I've used it for 3 years now. The same size is $25 at Petco so it was nice to find it cheaper on here. This bottle lasts me a little over a year because of our weather in Oregon.

Graham, IOW: I have used Stress Coat for years in the aquarium and in that situation it is a reliable performer, although I tend to use Amquel now as it removes more 'bad' things. I digress. I have never used Stress Coat in a pond as for de-chlorination purposes I use a three canister water purifier. However, this summer I had a frightening ammonia and consequent nitrite spike in my pond. Usual water changes, more quick fix bacteria added, but to no avail. I saw that Pond Stress Coat was supposed to remove ammonia. The API web site was suitably vague on the subject, but I thought I had little to lose. Added 1.25 litres of Stress Coat to 5000 gallon pond. I took a water sample 5 minutes later. The ammonia was gone. Strangely enough, so was the nitrite, which I do not understand. I would have thought time would need to pass for bacteria to remove the remaining nitrite, but I'm not complaining.
A very good detoxifying additive then.
The only downside was the Amazon Prime delivery. Ordered Monday, arrived Thursday, not something fish keepers will appreciate.
