Stick with things like the bottlebrush and some of the more fancy macro's that dont grow as fast and prolific and you'll be alright. Chaeto belongs in refugiums and culture systems IMHO and caulerpa as much as I like it definately is NOT for those who want low maintenance... it is a high maintenance algae for sure!. |
sargassum and sea grass

how deep is your substrate?
when you vacuumed your gravel you may have made the
nitrates higher by killing off the anaerobic bacteria at the bottom.
