So I just submitted myself to highway robbery by buying a small chunk of Chaeto for like 30 dollars from algae barn.
I put it into my refugium and was pleased to see it spinning nicely. I came back a couple hours later and thought, man, that ball looks a lot smaller than what I put in there.
I realized that small spaghetti strands were falling off and exiting the refugium over the wall. I saw little hair strands all throughout the sump and even to my incredible dismay, one made it inside my skimmer.
Anyway, am I screwed? Anything to prevent this? Just flush my fish down the toilet now?
