Key parameters are continuously monitored and adjusted to ensure a stable, viable, and high-performing culture.

🌿 Key role of phytoplankton in the reef ecosystem

Phytoplankton forms the base of the marine food chain. It directly nourishes copepods, rotifers, and other essential microorganisms. Regular feeding allows copepod populations to reproduce actively, grow, and maintain themselves in the long term.

In recent or highly filtered systems, the addition of phytoplankton helps to recreate a more natural and resilient biological dynamic.

🌱 Main benefits:

• It directly feeds the microfauna and copepods
• Stimulates the reproduction and growth of pod populations
• Supports the reef's natural food chain
• Contributes to better overall biological stability
• Ideal for refugiums, reef aquariums and biodiversity-focused systems

✅ Ideal for:

• Maintaining and encouraging copepod populations
• Feeding of microfauna and rotifers
• Modern Reef Refuges and Aquariums
• Systems that are too clean or poor in natural production

📋 Instructions for use – Dosage and application

🏠 Conservation

• Keep refrigerated.
• Shake several times a week to prevent sedimentation.
• Shake gently before each use.

🧪 Recommended dosage (starting point)

1 to 10 ml per 10 gallons (190 L) per day maximum
Start with a moderate dose and adjust according to observation.

💧 Adding method:

• Add directly to the main container or the refugium.
• Ideally, dose in the evening or when lighting is reduced.
• For best results, turn off the skimmer 30 to 60 minutes after dosing.

⚙️ Adjustment:

If the water becomes cloudy or an unwanted buildup occurs, reduce the dose. A small, regular daily dose is more effective than an occasional large dose.

💚 Professional quality live product , scientifically developed to nourish the base of the food chain and sustainably support copepod populations in your reef ecosystem.
