Vibrant v/s Christmas tree / feathe dusters

[tmynice]

Has anyone seen any negative effects of using Vibrant with any form of Tube worms? Since starting to use it a few weeks ago, none of my Tubeworms are coming out. The only thing in my tank that has changed was the use of Vibrant. Let me know if I am alone. Thanks!

Vibrant is not safe for feather dusters and coco worms, IME. I would stop dosing it.

Because they look awful, the feathers shrink to half their size, they won't come out and feed. It was quite obvious to me it was killing them. I stopped dosing it and it took about two weeks for them to recover. Vibrant will kill sponges, gorgonians and pisss off anemones as well.

All 3 in my tank and I've been using vibrant for nearly a year(was using it twice a week for a few months too) now with 0 effect.
