Chetos in the back filter of my nano?

hi.. does it help to put Chetos in the back compartment of my 14 Gallon nano? does it help in keeping the water "cleaner"? thanks!

The Chaeto will need to get light and flow for it to be effective. If you're able to give it those two things, it'll help in removing nitrates from your water.

So are you turning a filter compartment into a refug?
