Getting ready to start my tank...I'm concerned that I've rinsed my sand with regular water...obviously a small amount of that water will get in the tank with the sand and possibly add some unwanted phosphates. Would it be possible to add a bunch of chaeto in the tank to help absorb some of the nutrients in the water while the tank is going through it's cycle. Would the cycle kill the chaeto? Would this help at all? Will it help prevent any future algae bloom? Just curious...thats all! Thanks!
