Super interesting, thanks for posting!I don't know much, but I thought this was really interesting thread from Dana Riddle a while back
Nitrate and Phosphorus Control via Phytoplankton Additions?
The new 120-gallon reef tank is doing well and I've added all the fish I feel prudent for now (2-Yellow Tangs, 1-Lamarck's Angel, 2-Maroon Clowns, 2-Ocellaris clowns, 2-Neon Gobies - about 20 inches total length in all and growing.) These fishes are fed at least 3x daily with frozen mysis, live...www.reef2reef.com
Did you read the thread posted by @boacvhI was wondering if they may actually reduce nitrates via photosynthesis?
Unless the bottled phytoplankton is already dead...
I would say yes, adding any type of organics will up your nutrient leveks
Did you read the thread posted by @boacvh
They do sell both bottled dead and live phyto, but depending on where you get it even alot of the live stuff is dead... You need a fresh bottle from a live culture, not something that's been on a shelf for 2 weeks
Ask @Dana RiddleMight be a silly question, but can dosing phytoplankton have any measurable effect on nitrates?
