That is a bit of a toss up. The only thing that it ever killed in my tank was acro crabs, any other crabs seemed to survive it. I didn't have any shrimp in my tank as I had a wrasse that regarded them as tasty snacks. You may see a few copepod bodies floating around in the currents afterwards but for the most part my copepod populations seemed to be fine/rebounded quickly.

Oh, it will probably kill starfish, I had a red fromia that went missing around that time, I'm pretty sure the interceptor did it in. I think urchins are fine though (tuxedo).

Theres a good article on how to treat here: http://www.melevsreef.com/redbugs.html

The Reef Aquarium Vol 3 by Delbeek and Sprung has some more advice and would be an even better item to bring it to your vet as proof of what you want to do with the product. Look on page 648.
