Hey all,

I have been culturing phyto for a little bit now and currently have way more than I can possible handle. I dose it to my own display but only go through about a gal a month which is not nearly enough to consume what I make, even with 2 pod cultures running at same time. I would much rather see it go somewhere to people who can use it rather than start dumping it down the drain.

Strains are:

Diatom - Chaetoceros Muellerii
Non-Diatom - Nannochloropsis

I usually just mix them together into 1 batch when harvesting so it would be a mix of the two. Not really looking to make money as much as maybe cover some of the cost of the jars/fert/silicate, if willing to pick up or meet near the Pittsburgh (south hills area) $20 per half gal seems reasonable to me!
