What in the world are you doing to get it to grow like that?
What kind of salt do you use?
How strong is the flow in your refuge?
What is the wattage of that light?
1. Reef Crystals
2. Quiet one 4000
3.I have the Lights Of America Wall Light. It uses a 6500k 42 watt fluorescent bulb (equivalent to a 250 watt bulb)

Sorry about the slow response.
Just moved and been busy with my new project....125 inwall

That little ball of cheato has grown like mad!! It is really thick and starting to grow up and under all baffles. It takes up the entire 20 long now.
I will post pics later the tank is still at the old house until the new fish room is finished.

The chaeto growth on the back of the tank actually looks pretty cool. I know this is a bit off topic but your plugs behind the tank are freaking me out. Do you think you could put a splash guard or something on it? I'm thinking something like the guards they have on the hot air vents that exit your house from your dryer exhaust. I'm hearing a crack, fizzle just looking at the thing.

OK the move is finally complete so I have a little more time on my hands...
I have a lot of this stuff and am willing to sell cheap if anyone is interested.
I need some info on how to ship this stuff, anyone with suggestions or experience with shipping please respond.

I've bought some before - just a sandwich bag inside another sandwich bag and a loose piece of paper towel wrapped around it with a tiny bit of water included to keep it moist.
shipped in one of the small priority (2 day) mail boxes available at the post office..
I'd be interested in some (possibly) - I set up the last batch I bought in a grow tank using your light advice and am also leaving it on 24/7 - its growing some I think but not as quickly as yours is.
Let me know how much your asking for a batch and I'll see if I can take some of the Mad Grow Cheato.
