Now THAT'S Chaeto!

Yeah, what kind of light you got on there?

 

I've got two 200w power compact grow lights over the tank and I run them for 12 hours per day opposite my main tank lights - the wash from them causes coraline algae to grow inside my skimmer - maybe a little overkill, but I like the fuge growth

 

I could use a bag of chaeto!

 

That is awesome. I want to see a picture of someone holding that monster!

 

I have the JBJ led fuge light. My cheato grows like crazy too. Went from tennis ball size to filling my whole second chamber on my biocube in about 2 months.

 

Cheato is an amazing algae. I started with a clump the size of an orange in October and now it fills my 14 gallon fuge.

 

Do you guys rotate the chaeto or how do you ensure even lighting at that size?

 

I haven't touched the stuff since I literally dropped it in the fuge. Interestingly it has completely dominated the feather caulerpa that had previously taken the fuge over (I'm ok with that).

 

Wow - that's nuts!!!

 

Looks awesome, i'd add different types of macro and really turn it into a great "show" fuge , there are a few ppl on nanoreef that sell some of the 'rarer' macros its pretty neat. If i had that much space i'd go for it.
