I have had my 28g nano running for a while now. Nicely stocked with rock, some fish and mixed corals. I had purchased a ball of chaeto with my clean up crew and put it in the media basket and have a jbj nano glo light on it.
I changed my filter pad today and noticed that the chaeto is almost melting. From what I have researched, people say that it is because there is nothing left in the tank for the algae to eat and that it is a good thing. I trimmed back all the dead stuff and we will see if it grows back any more.
All fish and corals are doing very nicely.
Death in a tank is usually a bad thing, but is the death of chaeto good? Since it is algae and you really dont want algea????
