I'm speaking solely from a commerical additive standpoint, I use distilled and DI water on my salt tanks, but I'm curious how the others rank for my use in my freshwater tanks, and to know what to recommend to customers at the pet store i work in.
I'm judging more than the ability to remove chlorine, but more or less the quality and the ability to do what it claims on the package(ie coating the fish, relieving stress, etc)
I have always been a fan of Kordon's NovAqua, but I've heard good things about Bio-safe/Bio-coat and Stress Coat. I have a hard time trusting anything from Tetra, and I do not trust any no-name brand. I know nothing about some big brands like Proquatics, so I have no opionon on them (though I will say I looked over some proquatics HOB filters and was somewhat impressed with the design and the information they provide on the box)
I do not know if it's new or not, but I noticed we just started carrying some made by Seachem called Prime, and a stress reliever called Stress Guard. I do hold Seachem in pretty high reguards, and the asking price is quite a bit higher than competitors, so you would assume it's good stuff.
Any input?
