Erm, chaeto is a form of algae which will help with nutrient export.

As for biohome.....heres a site which is pretty detailed.

I got mine from C328 a LFS in clementi. Think Petmart or some LFs should carry, but price may differ

[aftermath]

Great website!...

which LFS do u think will hv cheaper price?

btw roughtly hw much is 1 kg of biohome?

[nkh]

i got mine biohome plus for 40/kg

[aftermath]

nkh,

Do u think PR Farm sells biohome?

[nkh]

should have but should be more ex than place like petmart n c328

[aftermath]

gt my biohome from petmart at 40/kg(grey).

any idea why the red biohome cost more at 60/kg?

[nkh]

the red biohome is said to have added a coat of nutrients tahts y its red. Thus the higher cost

after the nutrients in the red biohome is 'used up' it will become the same performance as the grey biohome ??
