Question regarding the safety of binding metroplex

[Dolphins18]

Hello,
I need to treat 2 tanks for internal parasites. Both tanks have over $1000 in livestock incuding but not limited to, many inverts, corals, everything from shrooms to SPS. I am under the impression that when metroplex is binded it is reef safe, I am having difficulty understanding this as naturally many of the corals eat the same food fed to the fish.
I am very curious as the effect on inverts, anemones in particular as these tanks combined have 50+ nems, as well as many other invertebraes. There comes a point when losing a 30 dollar coral beauty outweighs the negatives of taking a large risk, I of course just want to be sure I am not introducing a nuke to my tanks by doing this.
Thanks!
EDIT ( I have not had to treat fish disease in over 15 years, so I am a bit worried about moving forward )

I have been soaking one level spoonful bound with focus in frozen food for over 14 days with no noticeable effect on corals and inverts. they get it all in one day. Trying to deal with an ich outbreak. It seems to be helping.

i have also dosed hydrogen peroxide. Now that i did notice a difference in my softies and anemones. I have a 150 truly mixed reef with softies, gorgonians, LPS, SPS, clams.

I do run a bag of carbon in the sump.

You should be fine.

Thank you! The product you are binding is metroplex right?

I am doing the same for internal issues (~7 days) and no Ill effects on corals or inverts.

I just posted a new article on medicated foods: https://www.reef2reef.com/ams/proper-dosing-of-medicated-foods.780/

The document itself is on the right side of the page.

Figured I would update this thread as it may have some knowledge to help someone in the future.
Based on fairly limited knowledge, I think metroplex is probably not very toxic to anemones.
I directly fed a large chunk of food soaked in binded metro to a rock flower I dont care about, ate it with no negative effects.
It seems based off what limited effects I saw on both tanks is this will affect some worms (maybe all). I barely fed any to the big tank just a single piece of silverside. I fed a single lionfish in a 135 gallon tank a piece of silverside soaked in the binded metro, and just that was enough to decimate many worms and feather dusters.
In my smaller tank I dosed all the food that went in, and nothing seems to mind, there are no feather dusters in there, dont know if it killed the bristle worms yet.
Of course these are just initial observations but anyone with worms in their tank that they want I probably wouldn't do this.
