Thanks a lot Amanda, I got the chaeto today. :jumping: I think I owe you a few bucks though. The postage was like $5+ and I'm pretty sure I only gave you like $4.

KingSpade and Infern0,
I actually really pulled out a ton, so the fuge will be sparse for a little while. I think we'll have to do it again in a month or two, which will put us past the cold weather danger. If you send me an email to Hodge712@yahoo.com, I'll let you know as soon as I'm ready to pull a bunch out again. I've already got 2 others on the list for next time.

Lol... that was my fault for underestimating the postage. I checked the USPS website and thought that the flat rate boxes were $4.05, but it turns out that the envelopes are $4.05 and the boxes are $8.10 and bigger than what I needed. I found my own smaller boxes and priced by weight, they all ended up in the $5 range. It was my fault, and not a ton of money, so I'm not worried about the difference. If anybody wants to send me the dollar & change tho, I won't turn it down.
I'm glad it arrived alright. :joy:

{EDIT} (Chaetomorpha linum)
Some people do put it in the main display. In that case, you'll just have to keep up with pulling it out frequently. In a fuge, you can let it grow to fill the whole space, maximizing the contact with the water and the nutrient export.
Edit: There are no stupid questions. I bought it for the fuge before I knew what it was called. Lol... I had to post a picture of it to find out the name.

It grows really quickly, depending on lighting. I say pull because of the way it grows. You just kinda rip handfulls off of the big tangled mass of it.

I sent another $1.50 because I felt bad. The chaeto is looking good and my refugium is full of happy little bugs now. Only a matter of time before my fish catch on

Amanda-
I got the chaeto this afternoon- Nice size bundle and very green. :cheer:
Thanks again. Rest assured, when it starts choking up my future fuge, I'll pay it forward too.
Take care!
