So I had some very small spots of algae in my tank, 3 spots each the size of a nickel. I decided to test out vibrant to see what this chemical was all about. I started out with a conservative dose of 3ml for a 100 gallon tank. Well this was a horrible mistake. Within 12hrs I started to notice corals turning brown and dying, all fast. Different types of corals as well, favias/chalices/montipora/acros. Now at around 24hrs after I’ve lost 50% of corals and I think that number will go up. I’ve never been more disgusted with this hobby then I am right now. My best educate guess on what happened is vibrant took all my nutrients to zero causing the corals to die. Nothing else has been added or changed in the tank. Literally nothing else has changed except the addition of vibrant. I’ll attach some pics so you can see how quickly the rtn/death happened. I’ve done water changes and running carbon. I think it’s all too late though. In these pics you will see a Jason fox red hot sestosa, a CB favia that was around 5in wide, 4in long completely dead, a J fox raja rampage that was really beautiful destroyed in less than 24hrs. A few other Frags I didn’t bother taking pics of out of disgust were some TSA signature acros as well as a Jfox beach bum monti. Just wanted to share so others could now that this can happen.
