Other casualties when using interceptor?

I understand that some polycheates will die when using interceptor on a tank. What types of polycheates might/will die, and what would survive? I wonder if a big dose of interceptor would kill a eunicid for those who have them. I had to remove mine by hand.

I lost crabs and 5 out of 6 peppermint shrimp. My 4 year old(how long I've had him) cleaner shrimp made it. I read reports on the original thread at another forumn by Dustin Dorton that larger shrimp were making it in some cases and mine certainly is a big boy.

I did first dosing a few days ago and my 2 cleaner shrimp are still kicking. All acro crabs bit the dust.

The shrimp are quite large but I will try to get them out again before the second treatment.
