How much peroxide affects cleaner shrimp?

Hey everyone, I recently got a really nice torch coral. I turned off one of my pumps so it could acclimate and my tank has been taken over by a ton of algae. I'm going to kick up water changes and turn the pump back on, but does anyone know how much peroxide negatively affects cleaner shrimp? Or is it just hit and miss? Thanks.

I classify them as the most susceptible thing we keep to peroxide

 

Some report survival at one mil peroxide to ten gals tank water but most report loss at any dose

 

Metabolically they just can't take it usually, interestingly, while coral banded shrimp can take direct contact at times. Amazing dichotomy.

 

Qt them during treatment its prob a for sure loss.
