I’ve been trying to cultivate a fuge in a section of my sump for the past 6 months. I threw in some live rock, a bag of pods from Reefs 2 Go, and every few weeks added a bag of chaeto or other macro algae purchased on RC. I also added a 24 watt PC fixture. The macro is barely surviving, while the live rock is now sprouting tufts of hair and pink algae and aiptasia anemones. I added a small powerhead for some additional flow and this seemed to perk up the caulerpa for a while but now it’s fading again. In sum, it ain’t working. So what I’m thinking of doing is removing the sump, cleaning it, and tossing everything that’s now in the fuge. I would replace it with a ball of chaeto, using the powerhead to keep it in motion. I would also replace the 24 watt PC with a 72 watt T5 fixture. The goal obviously is to grow and harvest chaeto, which I have not yet been able to do. Am I missing something? Any advice/suggestions appreciated.
