Nutrient uptake for reef refugiums: Increases in mass by absorbing nitrates and phosphates, supporting healthy marine life
Safe haven for zooplankton: High-density area attracts and shelters copepods and other zooplankton
Pest-free macro algae: Reduces risk of pests and diseases in reef tanks
Optimized for strong light and flow: Thrives under optimal lighting and water movement conditions
Summarized by Shop
Chaetomorpha Algae, commonly known as Chaeto is the most common macro algae used in the reef refugium. As nutrients build-up usually as a result of feeding, the chaeto will uptake these nutrients and increase in mass (grow) pulling and trapping nitrates, phosphates in their cells. The overall mass and high density area can provide a safe

Fantastic chaeto!
Fantastic transaction all the way around. Love the personalized email etc! Chaeto seems to be growing well and nutrients in my tank half decreased in half WAY faster than I was expecting. This stuff likes the kessil grow spectrum for sure.
