  1. High nitrates help!

    Thanks for the feedback on DSB's. I was only relating my experience. By no means is Chaetomorpha the ONLY means of nutrient export. AND it WILL grow quite fast depending on the amount of light you choose to give it and what the concentration of nutrients in the system actually is... I...
