I have had good luck with the stress coat. When you net the koi you remove a lot of the slime coat that they need. As you no this time of year that the parasites are makeing babys like mad, and even with good conditons the koi can get parasites. I may not have had the problem with the koi flashing if I had used this product to put back the slime coat that I remove. I bowl my large koi and I dont have to handle them much but this time I sexed the koi and handled them alot before I returned them to the clean pond. I am sure this did not help them as would think that all the handleing of the koi hurts their skin, when you pick them up with your hands you get the slime on you so you no that it needs to be replaced. I dont plan to ever stop using this product as I believe the expert no what they are talking about.
