Refuguim
Finally added chaeto to my refugium last week. I recently discover what I thought was a diatom outbreak of as really Amphidinium dinos. So I started to treat the dinos. Raised my NO3, PO4 and started dosing bacteria and phytoplankton. I figured, with the big increase in nutrients it would be a good time to add chaeto. Plus it’s one more tool to try and out compete the dinos. So, far the plan is working. In a week my dinos have receeded by over 50%. The chaeto has grown pretty well. It started as a softball size ball and has at least doubled.
