Any success on getting fish to eat chaeto?

[Armando]

which one?

I always see chaeto in Dawn's tank. I think her tang(s) love them. Not sure which tang or all of them. I believe she's got a naso and a ocean (?) tang.

If it's in the tank & green, my yellow tang will eat it

I have a rabbitfish. It loves the cheato I pull from my fuge.

 

[Armando]

So in theory, if I put enough chaeto in the tank to grow and self-sustain I won't need to feed these guys. Right?

 

[Piscevore]

My tang ate it all the time

 

[dz6t]

well, you still need to feed the tang. I don't think chaeto is enough. Try to imagine you only eat one kind of vegi all year long.

is beer a veggie?

Try to imagine you only eat one kind of vegi all year long.

I'd be a Calvin Klein model!

My tang loves chaeto and all my caulerpas. Emerald crabs do too.

My yellow tang cleared out 1/2 of a 75g full of grape caulpera in like 3 hours.....OK it was less then a month...the pig
I know have a "mini fuge" in my fuge where it can grow, protected from his appetite

 

[Lam]

Armando, the tangs are constant grazers and will demolish your chaeto in no time....unless you have a really BIG tank and limited tang(s).

Lam ...clear your PM box

 

[Armando]

Lam (yes clear your PM box ) my fuge is putting out chaeto like crazy so i can just keep trimming it and dumping on the tank. sort of having the tang eat his own poop eew but that's just life!
