So I've had my new tank setup for about a month now. Chaeto has been in for about two weeks. Is my chaeto is suppose to look like this? Thoughts?
Fish: two blennies, clown, chromis, cardinal, two peppermint shrimp and a handful of CUC.
Phosphates and nitrates are both at 0.
When setting up my tank, I placed a piece of LR from my old tank that was slightly covered in GHA to help kick start new tank. The GHA is starting to spread in the DT now. I'm pulling out as much as I can each day but seems to be a loosing battle. Is my GHA out competing my fuge and chaeto is starting to die off?
Attached are day one pic of chaeto and now. Light is a GE LED daylight 100w 5k. On a reverse light cycle for about 9hrs.
Sump is starting to look nasty BTW, ugh!
