Introducing the Chaeto - Bundle (Chaetomorpha spp.), an excellent addition to any marine refugium or sump setup! Our Chaeto - Bundle includes a Tennis Ball size sample of this macroalgae, providing you with enough to kick-start your refugium. Not only does it offer a beautiful aesthetic to your tank, but it also brings numerous benefits. Reduces Nitrate and Phosphate Levels: Chaeto - Bundle plays a vital role in maintaining optimal water conditions by naturally reducing nitrate and phosphate levels in your aquarium. Say goodbye to harmful toxins! Encourages Beneficial Critters: With its protected environment, our premium Chaeto - Bundle attracts and supports beneficial critters, such as copepods and rotifers. These little helpers contribute to a healthier ecosystem and enhance the overall well-being of your fish and corals. Unlike invasive saltwater algae species, the Chaetomorpha spp. is perfect for placement in a confined refugium or sump area. It thrives with the assistance of an extra refugium light, ensuring its rapid growth. Setting up your refugium? We recommend utilizing the middle chamber of a three-chamber setup. This positioning keeps your return pump and protein skimmer areas algae-free. For added protection, a coarse filter before the last chamber helps prevent any rogue algae from entering your main tank display. While all our algae species are disease-free and of premium quality, we particularly love the vibrant green of the Chaeto. Its fast growth rate effectively lowers phosphate and nitrate levels, maintaining a healthier habitat for your marine life. Although red macroalgae species can also be placed in your refugium or sump, they tend to grow slower compared to their green counterparts. Their stunning beauty is almost too good to hide away, making them an excellent choice for showcased planted refugium tanks. For expert advice and exceptional service, trust Marine World Aquatics.
