I got some chaeto about 3 weeks ago, and I don't believe it's growing or doing much of anything. I have it under a 20watt red LED grow light, and I have more than enough nutrients at around 20 nitrate and .2 phosphate. It's on a reverse light cycle and gets about 12 hours a day. I'm not tumbling it, but neither did the guy I got it from.
The guy I got it from had these under a full spectrum chinese black box LED. Does chaeto prefer full spectrum? It's also worth noting that it seems to be getting covered in micro bubbles from my skimmer. Could that be upsetting the chaeto? I've got cyano in my display, so I'd really like to get this stuff kicking butt to out compete it.
