cheato in display.

[macchicks]

Can I put some cheato in a filter basket at the back top corner of my tank? I dont have a sump or refuge.

I would like the to get the positive benifits of the cheato.

When I pitched the none working canister filters I kept a basket.

I don't see why not. I buddy of mine keep his in a suction "soap dish" from walmart. Its in his main tank under lights untill someone comes and takes it. he gives it away.

Sure, it will be fine.

cool. the suction cup soap dish seams like a great idea. now to get some cheato.

No problem with chaeto in the display; however, I don't think that the amount will be enough to make a difference. And if you do have enough chaeto to benefit from it, then imo you'll have a display tank of macroalgae.

I have sargassum seaweed on a veggie clip

That is a shame you trashed the nonworkinf canister you could have been creative and used that as a sump/refugium! I mean some people use buckets I could help you come up with a plan but we would have to start a new thread in the right section. DIY forum Just an idea
