I run chaeto. It is the the consensus on here that it should be used and lit 24/7. I have been running it for 2 months and have a ton of growth and pods like crazy. My nitrates are 0 and my phosphates are very low. Culerpa can go a sexual and can cause issues. Chaeto can not.

To be safe Chris, just run chaeto and you will be fine.

So why run it 24/7? I have heard and read you only need to run is on the reverse cycle of your tank lights.

If you want variety (and good tang food) you can also run gracilaria. It is safe and non-toxic.
