I start using Vibrant about a week ago cus some diatoms on the glass and bubble algae and it was amazing how in a hour all that brown slime from the glass disappear and my water is crystal clear. Also for the bubble algae I got two emerald crabs that are working hard and taking care of those. I used the recommended doses from manufacturer.
