Dosing Vibrant

[vetteguy53081]

Have anyone tried this stuff? If so what was the outcome? Need feed back before I start using this.

Good stuff and I always recommend to dose 80% of recommended dosage

I used it in a mixed reef with tons of coral with soft, lps, and sps. I had no coral losses and everything looked unaffected. It took about 6 weeks to remove gha and bubble algae.

I have used Vibrant (Saltwater version) in my mixed coral tank with great result numerous times. Took about 3 weeks to clean up GHA. Tank glass and water became crystal clear. Just remember to remove chaetos from the system. I forgot to remove chaetos before dosing and all got rottened and died out, twice. Both times were my fault.

Highly recommend.

I had GHA and tried reef flux x 2, and it didn't do anything to it. Reef flux definitely takes care of bryopsis, but GHA is hit or miss.

I tried vibrant afterwards and it took care of my GHA.

Interesting we had the exact opposite experience!
This hobby is fun isn't it

I like it. Just go slowly and be patient— slow and steady will win the race here; avoid an ‘if some is good, more is better’ mentality. ;)

Dump it down the sink and fix the underlying issue.

Terrible advise. But AGREE his water is garbage

Reef flux works much better for gha anyway and is much safer

Yes it does. but there is nothing wrong with vibrant, and my tank has never looked so great for so long. Water changes bring on GHA in my tank, no water tester can figure out why. 37ppm incoming and leaves RO membrane at 0 before 3 stages DI . Yet brings on GHA for the last 30 years.

Its not enough, id never let my water quality get so bad

Your* tank is filled with lps, you could dose anything without issue.

I have grown successfully SPS in the past.

My tank is sps dominant. But I found the source at 3am. Apparently my powerheads is not pushing water around enough because I have a lot of crap under my aquascape. Then I found a dead Anthias under the rock too . What a morning
