I can not find the video but Ryan once mentioned rinsing chaeto in tap water and even leaving it in the fridge to kill any hitch hikers and pest. I've seen some post where people have had success with this but does anybody know if this would take care of any potential eggs/larva that may hitchhike in? My plan was to soak chaeto in rodi for several hours and refrigerate it after in hopes of killing off any pest before they get a chance to enter my tank.

Ryan talked about this on his Facebook page. If you're on Facebook, you can view that video HERE :)
