Can a reef genius help me out
I have just setup a sump with chaeto and was wondering if my lights were going to promote algae on the cheato itself and choke it from doing it's job. Will I have to worry about this with this light theres 2 of these on the cheato http://genet.gelighting.com/LightPro...onal_PAR_PAR30

No you don't need any critters. The fuge is where you want algae to grow, the algae won't "choke" the chaeto from growing.
BTW it doesn't hurt to keep a few critters in the fuge, I have 2 snails and 2 dwarf hermits in mine. |
