Review on Efficient Marine Aquarium Cleaner: Vibrant (16 oz) by Travis Riffey

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Thing works!: aquarium water treatment

so I had plague sized blister algae. A whole lot of other types of green algae. Having struggled with ups and downs with ball algae for years, I've come to the conclusion that I have nothing to lose. I started taking Vibrant once a week at twice the recommended dose. I immediately saw a change in the amount of diatoms on the glass and didn't have to clean the glass again. The green algae on the rocks disappeared within a few weeks. Now for the blister algae, it took several months of double weekly dosing to kill the blisters and it didn't happen on its own. I noticed that they get a white film and not shiny, happy and proud of themselves. So I went to Harbor Freight and bought a set of 36 inch bits. I took thin and went to work. I also installed filters on my powerheads to catch them. In short, I am now free of blister algae. a few LPS and Anenome, but I'm mostly SPS. I also have a large skimmer. Total water volume is about 200 gallons. No ill effects on anything other than algae. I read another review where they claim it killed everything. Possibly, but probably due to the death of the algae and the lack of a system that could take care of the subsequent pollution of the aquarium, I gave it a go and couldn't be happier.

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • cord is shorter than other picks
