Can you buy bad Cheato?

[Bifferwine]

I pronounce it kee-to. But I've heard it called chee-to and chay-to also. Who knows?

You can always just call it "spaghetti algae" instead :).

 

[NewbReefer]

Spaghetti is so much easier to pronounce :)

spa...spag... damn i cant say that. lol i am gonna call it cheeto. do they sell it at LFS's?

 

[Alexander]

I'm sure most LFS do. I guess it will depend on your store.

 

[cumminz]

well i have alot of very good fish stores around.... I found the best one last night... i bought a rock FULL of corraline all purple, 8 lbs, came out of their display tank. 25 bucks!

 

[Alexander]

that's an awesome deal! I only have 1 LFS here. last year there was 3-4 and all but one wend tits up. it really sucks.

 

[cumminz]

only 2 are saltwater exclusive

 

[Bifferwine]

Most LFS carry chaeto and caulerpa. If you can't find some locally, you can get it cheap on Ebay too.

Chay-toe is how I pronounce it.

Back to the original question:
Can you buy bad cheato?

I have to admit, I did purchase some cheato once that had a terribly foul mouth. I brought it home and stuck it in the refugium and it was like,

"F*@&KING water's too cold!! Gawd Damn pH is too high. Get the M'Fking Crabs off me!! Did you get those cute lights from your Grandma? Beeyatch! I'm gonna kill somebody up in here yo!! Who put the sh*t flavoring in the phosphates?!?!?!"

I had to flush that cheato down the toilet and buy more. :goodnight Couldn't have the kids listening to that all the time. Some creatures just can't be rehabilitated..................
