Phytoplankton Production

[ToesInTheSand]

Hey guys, we started a phyto culture and the first batch took 14 days before we could split it. This time it only took 4 days and it looks like we can split it again. Should we let it go longer or do you think we should split it?

What it looked like when starting

What it looks like right now

Im no expert but it looks like it could be split. Care to share how your growing it, and what benefits you expect or have heard of?

Nothing crazy just F/2 fertilizer (Mercer of Montana) LED strip from the hardware store, we are growing to help sustain a pod population in the tank and to culture our own pods as well.

Suppose to be split every 7 days or so.

You can let it get very dark if you want. The only real reason you have to split is if it is too dark for light to penetrate.

Thanks for the input guys! I will wait it out until Friday and see what we have by then.
