Our in house blend of single phytoplankton cultures combined at peak concentrations and never diluted. This blend has everything you could ask for!
While other brands have one strain or a limited amount of strains in their blend we have multiple. Cover all your basis with one PhytoBlend, we recommend inverting the bottle before each feeding to redistribute all the cells, then feeding 5ml per 10 gallons of water volume.
For best shelf life, store in the back of the fridge away from the light, with temperatures ranging from 37-42 degrees. We store phytoplankton at 37 degrees in a fridge with no light source.
This is an exceptional mix of phytoplanktons that will make your corals feel like they are back in the ocean. Feeding this blend will help reduce nitrates, phosphate and silicates in your water column while providing the essential building blocks most corals feed on naturally. Rhodomonas is the essential building block to add more color to your corals, a strain that you that's hard to come by.
Feeding during the day, when your lights are on with the return pump off will maximize the benefits of reducing your nitrates and phosphates. To increase your copepod population, feeding after your lights are off and turn off your return pump for 30-60 minutes. This will allow your wave makers to distribute the phytoplankton across your entire reef all to consume.
