I am starting the culture right now and I was going to use the reef nutrition 6 oz bottle of phyto. It says it is concentrated so can I still use the whole thing or should I use only some of it? I am making a 2 L culture. It says it is 1-15 microns.

I went ahead and did it and it is super dark green, almost black. Should I remove some and add saltwater until it is a lighter shade of green?If it’s your first time I would use whole bottle for sure. You can start with as little as you want it just takes more time and fertilizer giving it a chance to grow something you don’t want.
I was just going to recommend that you start a single strain. When culturing a multi strain product usually one species will dominate the culture. Usually that species that dominates is Nannochloropsis.I think I might start from scratch and get a single species, more diluted starter culture. Hopefully the stuff I have is still usable.
Yea, that's who I was going to order from. I got my F/2 from him. What species should I get?Check out Eldridge for single species. He harvests Monday nights and ships Tuesday. You won't get fresher. He's a member of this forum.
