Chaeto u can dip in fresh water no issue, others never try before.

If your tank is new, nutrient not build up most of the time will die.

Strong lighting and lack of Iron can be the factor also but rarely is the main cause.

If u want to use it for nutrient export, u will need about 10% of ur tank size in order to be effective.

My advise is u can wait a while more as ur bioload is still very low now. U can manage it by doing water change.

Give it another try maybe 3 months later. I don't advise dosing any nutrient to help chaeto grow cause u may also cause algae outbreak if didn't manage properly.
