Will Vibrant go after Coralline Algae?

[JGMeredith]

Wondering if I add bottles of the ARC Coralline In A Bottle while dosing Vibrant if the Vibrant will prevent the Coralline from growing/spreading. It's a new tank, about 2 months old and finished cycling. Thanks!

No it won't.

But IMHO the ARC Coralline in a Bottle won't really help with growing coralline algae either. None of the coraline algae in a bottle is worth the money you pay for them. Most, if not all, are just extra Calcium.

are you considering dosing vibrant? I was considering it in my 29g after a year but ended up just getting a proper cuc. Just curious

No, it won't impact coraline algea. What's the plan for vibrant?

I dose it once a week after my water changes just to help prevent any unwanted algaes from popping up and to help with sand bed so I don't have to stir it up as often

Yes, I've been dosing since the end of cycling once a week after I do a water chance to help prevent any unwanted algae and to help keep sand bed clean

I've had some good success with the ARC in the past. Just never used it while using Vibrant

Just be careful, some people have accidentally bottom their nutrients leading to dinos.
