Usually, stagnant chaeto growth is a sign of insufficient light. What do you run normally?

Also, ditch the sand and liverock. That sort of stuff has no place in a chaeto refugium. It just acts as...

I leave it on the magnet, but my magnet comes out of the tank between accounts. So short answer, yes, but with consideration.

I love em with the metal blade. I've gone ahead and epoxied the plastic heads to the main bodies though. Losing those things into the rockwork when moving across panes gets old real quickly. I don't...

It's an infection, prazi, hypo or Copper won't do the trick. You want to be using either Tetracycline, Kanaplex (if bacterial) or Maracyn (if fungal). I'd recommend doing some searches online to...

Super unhelpful answer incoming:

No clue, I've been mixing salt for so long now that it's intuitive. I just add scoops by feel, screw off and come back to 1.022-26 90% of the time.
