    I am building a refugiumto add to my system and I've heard cheato is the best way to go?.....problem is the LFS doesnt have any...I was wondering if anyone would be willing to ship me some..or would that even work? how much would it cost? I'm new to the refugium stuff...would like to have some from a well established tank that hasnt had ich or other parasites in a very long time...don't wanna introduce and bad guys to my system :)

    Ah. Thats kind of far from me. I don't have any chaeto right now anyway, just some sea grass (my LFS can get it for me though).

    A friend of mine just got a quart sized ziplock bag full of chaeto from ebay for about 10 bucks, with shipping included. Worth checking out if you can't find anyone to get it for you :)

    I can't believe no one on here living in America or even someone who lives in the same state isn't willing to put some in a ziplock bag in an envelope and send it through the post to Kevin3884. I would send you some but it would take quite a while to get there from the UK let alone without a license. I'm sure if someone did send some seaweed to Kev he would pay the postage through paypal or something...
