What's the best way to get my chaeto growing better and faster?

Chaeto will grow as it consumes nutrients from your water, therefore if you have a low bioload/low nitrates then it will grow slower than if you had a lot.
 
Here's my clip on from Home Depot with a cheap CFL bulb. Cheato is growing incredibly fast. The extra little ball was just a single strand last week and now is about 2" across.
