The Vibrant Liquid Aquarium Cleaner Thread

[Dash]

I was in on the recent group buy & would like to offer my bottle for sale. I had a smallish amount of cyano but increased flow seems to have beaten it back.

The last 2 photos are the same. Theres too much light coming through with the Magnafuge light now it was hard to tell how much had disappeared

After just two doses I notice my glass staying cleaner longer, hoping to clear up some bubble algae. Will report back after a few more doses. So far I'm impressed.

So bad news and more bad news.
1. UWC is now backordered on all their Vibrant products
2. My snails will be hungry very soon with nothing to eat

just wondering about their secret mojo sauce ..

perhaps vinegar ???

does anyone use vinegar for carbon dosing ??

and if yes,, do you have a bryopsis/algae problem ????

I dose vinegar daily, no bryopsis, only bubble algae, and a little fuzzy dark dark green hair algae.
Hair algae only seems to be growing on plastic stuff. Frag rack feeding ring and lin-loc, not on rock.
But Vibrant has still made a noticeable difference on algae growth on my glass. (WAY less)

There's 0.5% vinegar in the product so I doubt that's the secret mojo. Most likely the "95% cultured bacterial blend" or maybe the "3.5% other ingredients/RO/DI" (bottle says "other", website says "RO/DI")
I put a little bit on the tip of my tongue last night, it's very bitter, a little bit acidic and leaves a tingly/numb feeling, I don't recommend anyone try that, yuck.
There is a VERY slight odour of some type of natural fragrance. Someone had mentioned somewhere eucalyptus, it could be that, I don't know what eucalyptus smells like
