[jalemboo]

need some suggestion, what lighting should I use for cheato? currently using a nano pc light but my cheato doesn't seems to be growing at all and I have the light on from 9 pm to 8 am.

I'm using a red flood light and simple aluminum clamp light...

my chaeto grows great.

Something around a 6500k plant light. Even a screw in pc lamp will grow cheato.

Have a look on melevs reef website. He did a test as to which bulb works best. I believe it was a 5700k par 38 flood. Its what I use and I'm forever emptying my fuge of chaeto
