Hiya,
I was changing the water and accidentally used an old bottle of Stress Coat which was out of date. It's been out of date since January 2010 so only around 3 months, but is it okay? My fish seem fine but are their any side effects of using out of date Stress Coat?
Thanks
 
I wouldnt worry about it. I would however buy a new one. Its not so much an experation date as it is a sell by date. Like milk, it doesnt turn sour by the date on the carton.

And welcome to AA!
 
Thanks, I was abit worried as I thought it wouldn't dechlorinate the tap water, but It seems okay anyway.
Going to buy some more anyway this week :)
 
I think of the date as a worst case scenario time. Most bottles will be fine longer, but some wont so they say a certain date. If it smells and looks right,its usually ok.
