Can you have to little nutrient for cheato to grow??????
I had some for about 9 months now. I started to see a reduction in no3 from 25 to 0 and now is undetectable.
During this period it grew like crazy disposing a basketball sizes each 2-3 weeks, now that there is no no3 it stopped growing and breaking apart into small pieces,"not as strongas as before" (still green).

Will it still grow with low nutrient as normal?
Does chaeto utilize or consume kh/cal/& mag?
 
They do need food...
Growth will go down as less and less nutrients are available.

What light unit do you have?
