ChefDanRD Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 (edited) With regards to slime coat issues and wounds that occur after the cichlids fight, I have used Stress Guard by Seachem claims that is supposed to promote healing, reduce stress, and an antiseptic for fish. It stated that is does not clog resins like competing "slime coat" products can. I have use it and had luck with slime coat issues. I have also used a mild concentration of salt which I understand that it is supposed to promote slime coat production. However, their may be an underlying cause that ay need to be treated as well.
