Seachem StressGuard | Fish Stress & Wound Treatment | 100ml & 250ml

Help your fish recover faster from stress, injury, transport, and handling with Seachem StressGuard. This advanced fish conditioner forms a protective barrier over damaged tissue while helping reduce stress and supporting the natural healing process. Suitable for both freshwater and marine aquariums, StressGuard is an essential addition to every fish keeper's medicine cabinet.

Unlike traditional slime coat products, Seachem StressGuard contains unique protein-active colloids that bind directly to wounds and abrasions, acting like a liquid bandage while delivering antiseptic protection. It also helps reduce ammonia toxicity during stressful events such as transporting fish, introducing new livestock, or performing major aquarium maintenance. StressGuard has a neutral pH and will not clog filters or coat filtration media, making it safe for routine use.
