Does anyone know if aquatech has any chaeto and for how much?

 

[oldreefer76]

I have a small amount you can have for free to get you started

I really appreciate it oldreefer. The chaeto grows real quick doesnt it? Also does it need cut or pruined? What kind of light do you use for your chaeto oldreefer?

 

[oldreefer76]

pruning = pulling some out and giving to others, lighting I am using 20w 6.5k fluro run 24/7 and for most it does grow fast

I've heard of people giving it to fish to feed periodically: which fish like it?

I still need to figure out how to build a good HOB fuge for my 55gal that will fit in the space required (my sump is too small for a good fuge area, and I'd rather have a fuge that drains into my display tank rather than sucking and tearing pods up into it from the return pump).

Hmmmm, pods make it thru the return pumps just fine whether a 55g or 500g with a sump as long as the flow through the sump is sized to the tank, our 55g has about 17g sump with a fuge area that works just fine and a flow of around 214g returning to the tank, our skimmer a PM Bullet1 is running exterenly with the out put plumbed into the sump, and a Sedra 9000 in the sump feeding it, a small baffled off fuge and then our return fed by a mag3., am happy with it and works great
