Product Overview
API Pond Stress Coat is a premium water conditioner formulated to make tap water safe for ponds by neutralizing harmful chemicals that can negatively impact fish health. It works instantly to remove chlorine, chloramines, ammonia, and heavy metals, creating a safer environment for koi, goldfish, and other pond fish.
