Yea Chaeto won't grow. I never gave the turf scrubber that much time so i'm not sure. I just saw it as another place to grow dinos and gave up on it honestly. I had hair algae, doses an algaecide (whoops!), then got cyano so I dosed chemiclean, then hello Dino. Since then i've been dealing with dino. Occasionally, I can get cyano to grow a few days then dino consumes it. So far my only answer has been to overdose nopox(i dose for max nutrient load instead of the recommend ml because i know you can't read tests kits when you have algae or bacteria consuming it immediately). Haven't read nitrate or phosphate on my red sea or api test kits since i got cyano. I think NoPox just act similar to the guys dosing beneficial bacteria - outcompetes. Thinking about removing my substrate completely and giving the ATS another go. For clarity, i still skimmed when i tried the ATS previously.
