Hello, Like the title says I’m looking for advice about culturing phytoplankton. I’ve tried to start a culture a few times before and the same thing always happens.
Here’s the information about the culture:
Starting volume: 16oz - started with 1:2 ratio of phyto to saltwater. Started growing...
I’ve started dabbling in growing my own phyto. I harvested today and have 3 16oz containers up for grabs to anyone locally who wants/needs them. This is single strain Nannochloropsis but grew very well for me. Pickup in Prosper, TX, or maybe we could meet somewhere this weekend?
Live Phytoplankton so you can your reef tank specimens can feel fancy!
Each bottle is 3oz. Get a 2 bottle pack for just $5
Buy 3 bottle backs and get one free for $15
*BYOB Special. Bring your own container (but I would just make sure it is sterilized): 16oz for $10, 32oz for $20, 64 oz (Half...
Just curious if people would be willing to purchase Nannochloropsis Phytoplankton near the New Brunswick, NJ (08901) area. LOCAL PICKUP ONLY Prices would be as follows:
$12/16oz
$20/32oz
$40/128oz (1GALLON)
Sorry mods if this is against the rules- just want to gauge interest near my area!
I have been culturing Phyto and Pods for years and selling it here on R2R. Here is a link to my older thread https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/fresh-live-phyto-8-species-blend-–-free-shipping.796578/ I am hoping that this new thread will simplify things a little. I also have a website at...
For the past 3 months, I have been cultivating my own phytoplankton. I am seeing great results from my tanks. My mushrooms and zoanthids are plumper, along with seeing more vibrant colors on my SPS and LPS Corals.
And now I plan to sale in bulk and in limited quantities.
At the moment, I am...

Live Phytoplankton
We grow Nannochloropsis and Tetraselmis and bottle them multiple times a week with our rotating cultures. We sell bottles as single species as when you combine phytoplankton species to create blends, they can compete with one another and you end up receiving fewer species...
I recently delved into the world of phytoplankton culturing. My first attempt with Nannochloropsis in 500ml plastic bottles started off well but stalled after 3 weeks: it hasn't crashed yet but it's not getting any greener. I did add F/2 fertilizer and it's bubbling to produce a nice rolling...
This is a question for those of you who culture phytoplankton. I've just set up my first Nannochloropsis culture similarly to the bucket set-up in this thread: www.reef2reef.com/threads/culturing-phytoplankton.59497/
But I was wondering if I could use flexible LED strips around the sides of the...
I bought a 500mL Nannochloropsis culture from eBay and thought I'd see if I could keep it alive with a few things I had lying about the house. I couldn't easily get my hands on specific algae culture media, and I wasn't too keen on maintaining a perfectly sterile culture environment, so I wanted...
Anyone have any idea what has made its way into my culture of nannochloropsis?
Here is a quick video or 2 under the microscope:

I’ve started tetra and Nanno batches three days ago and noticed that both tend to settle on bottom. Is this because they are going dorment or not enough flow? I smelled all four bottles and there isn’t rotten smell.
I started with 20ml of stock solutions to 1L of 1.019 freshly made salt water...
Good afternoon,
I have a fresh batch of nanno phyto, made a tad more than expected. Each back is 12 FL OZ and the bags are high quality so they can be reused. I am selling these for $8.50 SHIPPED (FREE SHIPPING!).
Send me a message if you are interested.
I have:
4 Quarts of Chaeto for sale. I'm asking $15/each shipped.
5 - 16oz bottles of Nannochloropsis Phyto. They were cultured using f/2 WITHOUT silicates. For this reason, and due to the nature of Nanno, it's not quite as dark as other phytoplanktons. This phyto is alive, and it's dense. I'm...
We are pleased to announce a couple of new products from Reef Interests that we have been testing for several months. The first product is NannoFlakes fish food and I can honestly say this is probably the best algae based food we have ever used.
