Live, golfball-sized chaetomorpha macroalgae for saltwater refugium. This is a live, aquatic organism. May come with pods. For best practice, always quarantine any new arrivals, regardless of the source, to ensure the health of your tank.
Chaetomorpha, commonly referred to as Chaeto, is a popular choice of macroalgae for reef tank refugiums. Its fibrous structure effectively absorbs excess nutrients, such as nitrates and phosphates, helping to maintain optimal water quality. Chaeto's fast growth and low-maintenance care make it a favorite among reef hobbyists looking for a simple, natural solution to nutrient management without the need for complex equipment. It also provides shelter for beneficial organisms like copepods and is visually appealing, with some hobbyists even choosing to keep a portion in the main display tank, as it is usually left untouched by most marine life.
In summary, Chaeto is easy to grow and maintain with proper lighting, offering a straightforward way to support a balanced and healthy marine aquarium.
