It will kill lots of things--anything related to crustaceans, basically, including many types of worms, round worms, or anything else that sheds its exoskeleton/cuticle. If I remember correctly, red bugs have a quick life cycle. If you can treat and then quarantine successfully for a few weeks, you should be fine. The trick is setting up a quarantine with the appropriate lighting and water quality/stability.
