Not personally used it but it seems to do the same as prime but isn't as concentrated so works out more expensive unless you can get a really good deal on it.

Thanks. Does Prime do all the above?

You can read about it here http://www.seachem.com/prime.php the last of the easylife claims are clever marketing imo. De stresses fish will be done by the reduction of ammonia and nitrite.
I'm not for one minute saying it doesn't work. My guess is it will work just as well as prime like other manufacturers do but you need to work out how much you will go through to see if its the best option for you. For me with lots of water the seachem has always worked out by far the cheapest due to its high concentration.
