Smarcisin Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 i have had my chaeto quite a while now and it has not really grown alot. i didnt not have it in my main tank because i did not have a fuge for a while. i think the reason it was growing when it wasnt in the big tank was lack of nutrient supply that i had in the tank it was in. now i have a 24" fuge and i run 50/50 atnic light thats 6000k atnic. is their a better kind of light i should have on the fuge and also is live sand or garf grunge better to put in the fuge ?

Carl_in_Florida Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 My chaeto grows like, well, a weed. I just have one of those curly q screw in lights. Hope this helps carl Link to comment
Mike Maddox Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Actinic doesn't help much for plant growth...buth any daylight bulb works for chatoe. Try a clip on lamp with a screw in curly bulb like carl suggested. Link to comment
Daemonfly Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 the cheap 14w screw-ins are perfect, imho. Link to comment
