please elaborate a little more as to why do you doubt semiisotropic
coupling may not be necessary?


Water should compress isotropically. I understand where you're coming from, given that you have observed a seemingly semiisotropic compression of the system, but physically that is not right. Something like a membrane, that has properties that make it sensible to couple x-y and z compression separately, would use semiisotropic coupling.

Is this a system in which you're using freezegrps?

I am trying to simulate a peptide inside a nanotube and using isotropic
pressure coupling for the system. The nanotube is immersed in a cuboidal
box of water and aligned along the z direction of the box.

The XX, YY components of the stress tensor are about ~570 bars and the ZZ
component is about -1179 yielding a total pressure of about 2 bars whereas
my set pressure is ~1.01325 bars. Is this okay or should I be using
semiisotropic coupling?


Over how long a time period are these values?  If everything is immersed
in a bath of water, I doubt semiisotropic coupling is necessary.
