Aquatic Remedies Stress Heal Overview

Aquatic Remedies Stress Heal is a multi-purpose aquarium conditioner formulated to reduce stress, aid wound healing, and protect fish during transport and acclimatisation. It acts quickly to neutralise chlorine and bind heavy metals, while also helping to reduce ammonia toxicity in the water. Because it contains soothing botanical extracts, Stress Heal encourages slime coat formation and supports fish immune response, which helps reduce mortality during stressful events.

Key benefits

• Rapid stress reduction and improved recovery after transport or handling.

• Promotes natural slime coat formation and supports wound healing.

• Neutralises chlorine and binds heavy metals to make tap water safe for aquarium use.

• Reduces ammonia toxicity, offering an added safety margin during water changes or emergencies.

• Suitable for both freshwater and marine aquaria, and generally safe for fish, shrimp and plants when used as directed.

Active ingredients & how it works

The formula includes aloe vera and other soothing compounds that act as natural wound healers and immune stimulants. Therefore, Stress Heal forms a protective slime layer on fish, which helps reduce infection and assists recovery. At the same time, its chelating agents bind chlorine and dissolved heavy metals, rendering tap water safer for immediate introduction into the aquarium.

Dosing & usage (practical guidance)

• Standard maintenance / water change dose: 10 ml per 100 L of aquarium water.

• Transport / acclimatisation dose: 1 ml per 5 L when shipping or during short-term transport.

• For emergencies (sudden ammonia spike, heavy handling), follow standard dose and observe fish closely; perform partial water change if conditions do not stabilise.

• Shake well before use and measure with an accurate dosing tool.

When to use Stress Heal

Use Stress Heal during: new fish acclimatisation, transportation, after netting or handling, following medication treatments, and during water changes when rapid detoxification is needed. Because it works quickly, it is also handy as an emergency aid when fish show acute signs of stress.

Compatibility & precautions

• Stress Heal is formulated to be safe for freshwater and marine systems, including fish and most invertebrates; however, always follow label directions.

• Avoid overdosing; if accidental overdose occurs, perform a partial water change and monitor livestock.

• Do not mix with strong oxidizing agents or concurrent antibacterial medications without care — pause bacterial treatments when using antibiotics and then reintroduce beneficial bacteria afterwards if needed.

Storage & shelf life
