I have a tank that’s almost 3mo old. Mostly going well. Lol
I tried to add chaeto to my refugium about 6 weeks ago. It was fine until I added some vibrant.
in retrospect, I should have done more research... but the vibrant basically killed my chaeto.
in the mean while, I started various phytoplankton and copepod cultures. (Pics)
It’s doing well. Harvested phyto few times since I started that culture first.
The copepod culture was started about 2weeks ago and I can see the pods getting bigger and multiplying.
gonna do water change this wknd
questions:
1- is it safe to add a chaeto to the refugium again?
My research shows 4-6 weeks after the last vibrant dose before it’s safe to add the chaeto back.
2- has anyone added chaeto directly into the copepod culture?
It would be nice to seed the chaeto with pods before I put it in the refugium.
just Wanted to check if the chaeto would be ok for about 1 week in the culture jar.
