Threw out and gave some of my chaeto away before vacation since it was stripping too much, and of course now my nutrients are sky high and I need some more since mine isn't consuming enough.

Anyone near Burbank or Culver City able to spare a small handful? Thanks.

Run your lights longer and it will build up. Or dose iron to kick up the growth. Adding cheato will most likely not solve your issue

I'm already running 12 hours/day and PO4 is still barely coming down (I reduced feeding and stopped frozen foods during this time as well). It was growing pretty quickly before (and too effective) but it was quite larger.

BTW nitrate and PO4 are brought down together. if your nitrates are low and your phosphates are high, youll need to bring down the phos with gfo or something similar.

I'm in Long Beach and can give you a petty descent amount. Tank is pest free. No bristleworms or aiptasia. Nothing weird. Tank is only 5 months old, I started sterile, and I dip everything.

But I am in Long Beach LOL.

Thanks I appreciate the offer. If I can't find some closer I'll definitely hit you up.
